Julie M. Lippmann
Julie Mathilde Lippmann (June 27, 1864[1] – 1952) was a writer, literary critic, women's suffrage supporter, and political writer.[2] She wrote novels, plays, poetry, literary criticism, and U.S. propaganda during World War I. Her novel Martha By-the-Day was adapted on stage in 1914.[3] The 1919 film The Hoodlum was based on her novel Burkeses Amy.
Lippmann was born in Brooklyn, New York. She was educated at private schools in Brooklyn and by a governess. She traveled extensively.[4]
She was friends with Louisa May Alcott, Charles Dudley Warner, William Gillette, and Mark Twain.[5][2]
Her stories were published in various magazines.[6] She wrote the lyrics to the song "My Lady Jacqueminot".[2] Lippmann's poems included "If We but Knew", published in 1889,[7] and "Love and Life".[8]
After her death in 1952, her niece, artist and poet Julie Morrow DeForest, wrote the memoir "Auntie": Reminiscences of Julie M. Lippman.[5][9]
