Forgotten Leading Ladies of the American Theatre: Lives of Eight Female Players, Playwrights, Directors, Managers and Activists of the Eighteenth, Nineteenth and Early Twentieth Centuries
Mary M. Turner
The stories of eight women made remarkable contributions to American theatre, including Laura Keene, who challenged tradition in 1858 by heading her own dramatic troupe; Mrs. John Drew, a star at 7 who toured until she was 76, was the matriarch of the Barrymore dynasty; and Anna Cora Mowatt, who eloped at 15 with a lawyer more than twice her age, and went on the stage when he lost his fortune.
