Author Bio for Findlater, Jane Helen
Jane Helen Findlater (4 November 1866 – 20 May 1946) was a Scottish novelist whose first book, The Green Graves of Balgowrie, started a successful literary career. Jane and her sister Mary, sometimes referred to as the Findlater sisters, are known for their collaborative works of fiction as well as their own individual writing. Born in Scotland, spent the first twenty years of her life in Lochearnhead where her father was minister of the Free Church of Scotland. The family were not well-off, life at the manse was conservative, and the sisters' life was rather restricted. Their close relationship was of great importance to them, and continued for their entire lives. The family moved to Prestonpans with their mother after their father died in 1886. Jane and Mary tried to help the family finances by writing, while their older sister Sarah (Mora) worked as a nurse. It was ten years before Jane's book, The Green Graves of Balgowrie, inspired by her mother's family history, struck a chord with both the general reader and the critics. It had been written on grocer's paper; its success brought both freedom from financial worry and also literary acclaim.--wikipedia.org
