Kate Chopin was an American author of short stories and novelsbased in Louisiana. She is now considered by some scholars to have been a forerunner of American 20th-century feminist authors of Southernor Catholic background, such as Zelda Fitzgerald.

Within a decade of her death, Chopin was widely recognized as one of the leading writers of her time. In 1915, Fred Lewis Pattee wrote, "some of [Chopin's] work is equal to the best that has been produced in France or even in America. [She displayed] what may be described as a native aptitude for narration amounting almost to genius."
