When aspiring poet Anna Katharine Green (1846-1935) failed to gain recognition for her verse, she wrote her first and best-known novel, The Leavenworth Case, published in 1878. "The mother of the detective novel," Green wrote in a variety of genres, publishing about 40 books, and was among America's first writers of detective fiction.
