Lorna Doone Beers (May 10, 1897 – June 5, 1989) was an American novelist, poet, memoirist, and author of children's books.
The winner of an early Hopwood Award for fiction, Ms.
Beers was viewed by editors at E.P.
Dutton in New York as a writer with the literary potential and the mastery of Midwestern themes and voices to become another Ole Rolvaag or even Sinclair Lewis.
Her novels are praised for their strong characterizations of modern women, their sensitivity to the forces active in a changing America, and their clear-eyed poet’s view of life in the northern prairies.
Her three major novels were written in the ten-year period between 1922 and 1932.
