About The Author

Edith Wharton

Edith Wharton (1862-1937) won the Pulitzer Prize for The Age of Innocence, making her the first female recipient of the award. Wharton was born into a life of wealth and privilege in the upper echelons of New York society. Her knowledge of this “old money” world formed the backdrop of her best-known novels, The House of Mirth (1905), The Custom of the Country (1913), and The Age of Innocence (1920). Wharton lived out her final years in Europe.
