Author Louisa May Alcott:
Louisa May Alcott (1832-88), was an American author, born in Germantown, Pa. Alcott was raised in Boston, Mass., and was tutored by the American writers Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau. While serving as a nurse during the Civil War Louisa May Alcott wrote letters to her family which were later published as Hospital Sketches (1854). Her most famous works, Little Women (1868), an autobiographical novel of Louisa May Alcott's childhood, and its sequel, Little Men (1871), soon came to be regarded as children's classics. The deep sense of family loyalty and intimacy contained in these works assures her prominent position among authors of children's novels.
