Catherine Kidwell

Catherine Arthelia Kidwell (January 14, 1921 - February 17, 2002) was a little-known American novelist who began her career in writing late in her life, scoring a minor success with her semi-autobiographical novel "Dear Stranger". Kidwell enrolled at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln with her daughter Jane and culminated her studies with a Master's in Fine Arts in 1977 at the age of fifty six. She continued to write and to teach writing until a few years before her death at the age of eighty one, after a struggle with Parkinson's disease.
