Fannie Hurst
Fannie Hurst (October 18, 1889 – February 23, 1968) was an American novelist and short-story writer whose works were highly popular during the post-World War I era. Her work combined sentimental, romantic themes with social issues of the day, such as women's rights and race relations. She was one of the most widely read female authors of the 20th century, and for a time in the 1920s she was one of the highest-paid American writers. Hurst also actively supported a number of social causes, including feminism, African American equality, and New Deal programs.Although her novels, including ''Lummox'' (1923), ''Back Street'' (1931), and ''Imitation of Life'' (1933), lost popularity over time and were mostly out of print as of the 2000s, they were bestsellers when first published and were translated into many languages. She also published over 300 short stories during her lifetime. Hurst is known for the film adaptations of her works, including ''Imitation of Life'' (1934), ''Four Daughters'' (1938), ''Imitation of Life'' (1959), ''Humoresque'' (1946), and ''Young at Heart'' (1954).
