Elizabeth von Arnim
(1866 - 1941)
Elizabeth von Arnim, born Mary Annette Beauchamp, was an Australian-born British novelist. By marriage she became Countess von Arnim-Schlagenthin. After her second marriage she was styled as Elizabeth Russell, Countess Russell.
Although known in her early life as Mary, after the publication of her first book, she was known to her readers, eventually to her friends, and finally even to her family as Elizabeth.
Now she is invariably referred to as Elizabeth von Arnim. She also wrote under the pen name Alice Cholmondeley.
