James Perrin Warren Author & Editor

Mary Austin was an American writer of short stories, essays, novels, plays, and poetry from the 1890s to 1934. Remembered for her focus on the peoples and environments of Southwestern deserts, she is often thought of solely as a regional author, but she was also a part of early twentieth-century New York’s literary scene and the Imagist movement in Modernist poetry.
