| | Historic Bath - Edna Ferber |
 | | Ferber's treatment of actress Julie Dozier (a mulatto woman) and her husband, Steve, was inspired by one of the many tales that Charles Hunter shared with Edna aboard the James Adams. | | | This notion piqued Edna's curiosity and interest immediately, and she sat up from her slumped position on the floor. | | | The long rectangular barge—a full two stories high—kindled in Edna Ferber all of the romance and river lore that her studies had yielded thus far: |

| | Ferber was proud of that charge because she believed that every writer should be judged by their writing and not their sex. | | | Many reviewers thought that a man had written them but was using a woman's name as a coverup. | | | She told them that she threw away a book when she learned that the author was Jewish. |

| | Edna Ferber / Personality Plus |
| | In this bracingly modern novel, first published in 1914, Ferber contrasts the virtues of talent with those of experience to provide a fresh, readable, and smartly entertaining contest between a mother and her adult son. | | | Personality Plus is enhanced by the drawings of James Montgomery Flagg, one of the most highly regarded book illustrators of the period. | | | Edna Ferber (1887-1968) was a journalist and author whose best-known works include the Pulitzer Prize-winning So Big and the novels that were made into the musical Showboat and the movies Giant and Cimarron. |

| | Ice Palace: A Novel for Alaska Statehood |
| | While working on Ice Palace, Ferber kept in close touch with Ernest Gruening, then Senator-elect of the Alaska Statehood Delegation. | | | Ice Palace is a vigorous saga set in the mountains and frontier seaports of contemporary Alaska. | | | All the major villains are accounted for in Ferber's depiction; she is not particularly nuanced in her portrayal of character. |

| | Edna Ferber / Half Portions |
| | The stories gathered here are beautifully observed chronicles of early twentieth-century life and are filled with characters who, despite their very human foibles, are all bestowed by Ferber with warmth and dignity. | | | Edna Ferber (1887-1968) was a journalist and author whose best-known works include the Pulitzer Prize-winning So Big and the novels that were made into the musical Showboat and the movies Giant and Cimarron. | | | Showcasing the facility with words that made her a mainstay at the Algonquin round table, Ferber explores some of her favorite themes: the role of women (especially strong or unconventional women) in modern society, the mores of the midwestern small town, and the changes over time in relationships between parents and children. |

| | University of Delaware: EDNA FERBER LETTERS TO FLORA MAE HOLLY |
| | Although she refused to write any more McChesney stories after the 1915 collection, Ferber continued to publish short stories throughout her life, often as a respite from her longer novels. | | | In her letters, Ferber laments her failure to keep carbon copies of her short stories, since she makes so many last minute changes to her work. | | | Holly, who had also worked for Theodore Dreiser, was Ferber's first agent, and it was through her efforts that Ferber's first novel, Dawn O'Hara, was published. |

| | She later wrote that these early years-filled with her family's struggles with poverty, and personal incidents of anti-Semitism-formed the foundation of her identity as a Jew, and even pushed her to the self-expression of writing. | | | Her writing eventually led her to New York in 1912, where she continued to publish, writing twelve novels, twelve collections of short stories, two autobiographies, and nine plays. | | | At age seventeen, Ferber left her small Iowa town for Appleton and later Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where she wrote for newspapers. |
