Sylvia Jukes Morris : ウィキペディア英語版 | Sylvia Jukes Morris
Sylvia Jukes Morris is a British-born biographer, based in the United States. She is married to writer Edmund Morris. ==Education and Early Career==
Morris was born in Worcestershire, England and educated at Dudley Girl's Grammar School and London University. She taught history and English literature in London before marrying Edmund Morris in 1966 and emigrating to the U.S. two years later. After a period of freelance travel and food writing, she published ''Edith Kermit Roosevelt: Portrait of a First Lady'', the first-book-length biography of Theodore Roosevelt's second wife, in 1980; the book was based on hitherto private family documents. Reviews were positive; Annalyn Swan in ''Newsweek'' called it “marvelously full-blooded () engagingly written.” ''The Christian Science Monitor'' said the book represented “craftsmanship of the highest order,” and R. W. B. Lewis in ''The Washington Post Book World'', called it “an endlessly engrossing book, at once of historical and human importance.” The Modern Library reissued the biography in the fall of 2001.
