She was one of the most widely read and highest paid female writers in the United States for nearly fifty years, from 1911 to 1959.

Her stories appeared frequently in the popular press of the day, including The Atlantic, The American Magazine, McClure's, Everybody's, Ladies' Home Journal, and Woman's Home Companion.
