KATHLEEN THOMPSON NORRIS
Author Kathleen Thompson Norris signed her name on this sheet of
stationery from her home La Casa Abierta in Palo Alto, California.
Signature: "Kathleen Norris". 5¼x6¾, on ruled
stationery of La Casa Abierta in Palo Alto, California, 1 sheet folded. La Casa
Abierta - "Open House" in Spanish - was where Norris lived with her husband
Charles Norris. Once one of the highest paid woman writers in the United
States, Norris (1880-1966) began writing after marrying author Charles G.
Norris in 1909 and published her first of many novels, Mother, in 1911.
She became famous for sentimental, but honest, romantic novels and short
stories, as well as a syndicated column that ran for 20 years. 16 of her
novels and short stories were adapted to film between 1918 and 1935; her
novel Josselyn's Wife was filmed twice (1919 and 1926). A feminist,
Norris also supported world disarmament, women's rights and the abolition of the
death penalty and, later in life, nuclear weapons. Fold and creases, not near
signature. Paper clip impression and rust stains at right edge. Lightly worn at
corners. Otherwise in fine condition.
