Elizabeth Berridge
ELIZABETH BERRIDGE was born in London in 1919. After schooling there and later in Geneva, she married Reginald Moore, an editor. They had two children. Her first book was a novella, The Story of Stanley Brent, published in 1945. It was followed by eight novels, many short stories, book reviews, children’s books, and a highly respected edition of Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s early diary. The family and the tensions in its relationships were her abiding fascination; she was an acknowledged master in delving its depths. She died the day before her ninetieth birthday in 2009.
