Dorothy ScarboroughAmerican author Emily Dorothy Scarborough, who lived from January 27, 1878, to November 7, 1935, wrote about Texas, folk tales, cotton farming, ghost stories, and women's lives in the Southwest. In Mount Carmel, Texas, Scarborough was born. She relocated to Sweetwater, Texas when she was four years old for her mother's health because her mother required a drier climate. The family quickly relocated from Sweetwater in 1887 so that the Scarborough children could attend Baylor College and receive a top-notch education. The Wind, by far Dorothy Scarborough's best-known work, was initially published in 1925 under a pseudonym. Even though Texas is associated with Scarborough's writings, she attended the University of Chicago and Oxford University and taught literature at Columbia University. Eric Walrond and McCullers, who enrolled in her first college writing course, were two of her creative writing pupils. Read More Read Less
