Katherine Sherwood Bonner McDowell

Katherine Sherwood Bonner McDowell (February 1849 – July 22, 1883) was a female author of America's Gilded Age. She is highly significant both as an author and as a feminist icon in an age when it was difficult for women to break away from the accepted norm of husband and household and as such may be considered a romantic heroine of Gilded age feminism. She is also simply known as Sherwood Bonner, which was her pen name.
Born in Holly Springs, Mississippi in February 1849 to a wealthy and aristocratic family, Bonner turned tradition on its head and left both husband and child behind to pursue her literary dreams. Achieving nothing more than a pleasant mediocrity in the literary world and a financial drain on her benefactors, Bonner was nonetheless recognized as an influential and inspirational figure by her contemporaries as well as current students of her work and life.
==Childhood and early life==

Bonner's father was an Irish immigrant who married the daughter of a rich plantation family during the antebellum period. However, the Bonner family luck changed drastically during the American Civil War when her home was occupied by Union soldiers. A childhood of luxury and privilege gave way to an early womanhood of decreased possibilities and genteel poverty. Despite being "innately literary" from early childhood and the fact that Bonner wrote several stories that were published in small periodicals before she turned fifteen, her traditional upbringing and the prevailing societal attitudes offered Bonner little recourse other than marriage, and she married Edward McDowell on Valentines Day in 1871 at the age of twenty-one. She moved with her new husband to Texas shortly thereafter. Edward McDowell, however, emerged as a weak man unable to support his wife financially, and the birth of a daughter, Lilian, in November of that year left the family lodged first with the father of the bride and later with the mother of the groom.
