She was a reader in English at Bryn Mawr and tutored in English and French. She was awarded an Edgar in 1960. Her series character is Henry Gamadge, an antiquarian book dealer.

In that tradition, if you knew a person's family history, general type, and a few personal quirks, you could be said to know everything worth knowing about that person.
