Author Bio for Brush, Katharine
Katharine Brush, née Ingham began writing as a child. She was a 16 year old apprentice stenographer for two Boston-based newspapers. In 1920, she married Thomas Brush, the manager of The Review-Tribune in Ohio.
Katharine wrote a movie column for the Review-Tribune under the pen name Barbara Blake. Later she covered breaking news events and sports.
Brush wrote short stories for pulp magazines, greeting card verses, children's magazines pieces, and humorous personal stories. Her story "Him and Her," published in Collier's Weekly, won the O. Henry Award for Best Short Short of 1929. Her short short story "The Birthday Party" is frequently taught in
literature classes.
Her Jazz Age novel Glitter (1926) was adapted into two films, and Young Man of Manhattan (1930) was a bestseller. Her novel Red-Headed Woman (1931) was made into a 1932 film starring Jean Harlow and known for its racy humour. Her semi-autobiographical novel, This Is on Me, appeared in 1940. She died of cancer at age 49 in 1952.
