About The Author

Anne Brontë

Anne (1820-1849), the youngest of the Bronte siblings, wrote poetry and fiction throughout her childhood. She worked as a governess and became a religious lyric poet and novelist, publishing under the pseudonym Acton Bell. Her novels, Agnes Grey and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, are known for their realist and often ironic tone, which contrasts with the more romantic style of her sisters, Charlotte and Emily. Anne died of pulmonary tuberculosis at the age of twenty-nine, a year after the publication of The Tenant of Wildfell Hall.
