- W4386972098 abstract "This chapter documents Mary E. Wilkins Freeman’s success as a businesswoman by reading through her letters collected in <italic>An Infant Sphinx</italic> but also through archival material such as uncollected letters and manuscripts from the author’s private collection, as well as little known material drawn from newspapers of the time, for example the <italic>Brattleboro Daily Reformer</italic>, the <italic>Vermont Phoenix</italic>, the <italic>Vermont Record and Farmer.</italic> Freeman started her career in 1883 with $962.09 in cash and with one-half interest in a piece of Brattleboro, Vermont, property. After her death in 1930, her estate value at the height of the Great Depression came to $117,285.41. She amassed such financial success, this essay shows, not only through the power of her pen but also through her astute business customs, negotiations over royalties, and publishing strategies. Hers is a story unparalleled in nineteenth century American literature, especially among women writers." @default.
