People connected to Johanna Spyri
She wrote Heidi — the Swiss-mountain orphan story that became one of the most widely read children's books ever published, lodged in the cultural imagination for over a century.
About
Born 12 June 1827 in Hirzel, a rural pocket of canton Zürich, Johanna Heusser spent childhood summers near Chur in Graubünden — alpine valleys that would later furnish the landscape for her fiction. She became Johanna Spyri by marriage and turned to writing novels, including children's stories. Heidi arrived and stuck: the tale of the orphan girl in the mountains found an audience that never let go. She died 7 July 1901, leaving behind a book that outlasted its century.
