Autorenporträt
John Habberton was an American author and journalist, born on February 24, 1842, in Brooklyn, New York. He grew up in Illinois after his father passed away when he was six years old. Habberton served in the army during the Civil War and later worked with Harper & Brothers until 1872. He became the literary editor of The Christian Union (later Outlook) from 1873 to 1877 and worked as a literary critic for the New York Herald from 1876 to 1893. His most famous work, Helen's Babies, was inspired by his own sons' adventures. Initially rejected, the novel was eventually published anonymously in 1876 and became a surprise success, particularly among juvenile readers. It was later adapted into a film in 1924. Habberton also wrote stories about early California life, which were compiled in his 1880 collection Romance of California Life. Known for his humorous and often insightful writing, Habberton wrote under the pseudonym "Smelfungus" and was admired by figures like Rudyard Kipling. He married Alice Lawrence Hastings in 1868, and together, they had sons whose antics inspired some of his works. He passed away on February 24, 1921.
