Please remember to include an edit summary when you change the text of the article. Both 99.254.1.217 and 209.197.159.225 made a number of changes, each apparently minor, but they add up to substantial changes. Quine ( talk)
One recent change was from her being editor of the press to being "an editor" of the press. As I recall she was chief editor until she left following a pay dispute and Scott (the person) wanting to change the press to a more commercially driven enterprise. (This is as opposed to a press that embodied the Lucy Sprague Mitchell's Bank Street approach.) Quine ( talk)
One of the changes includes that Brown was known as "Brownie" to her friends. As I recall she went by different names depending upon the circle of friends. Her Hollins' friends refered to her as "Tim" because the color of her hair reminded them of Timothy Hay. (Leading to one of the pseudonyms. Quine ( talk)
Any interest in including a bibliography of her books? A complete one will probably have to be split off as a separate page as she was quite prolific. Quine ( talk)
It was appendicitis not an ovarian cyst that was the surgery. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.47.15.38 ( talk) 17:36, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
I just double checked Marcus' biography. The exploratory surgery "revealed an ovarian cyst... As a precaution, her appendix was also removed." (276) Quine ( talk) 18:06, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
Since Quine's investigation from 2012 indicates that the primary reason for the surgery was the ovarian cyst that was causing Ms. Brown pain, and that the removal of her appendix was only a precaution, then it's incorrect to say that she had surgery for "appendicitis." I believe I'm justified in making an edit to this effect. Rontrigger ( talk) 05:18, 15 April 2019 (UTC)
Our {{ infobox writer}} gives four pseudonyms of which I added the first three to {{ persondata}} alternate names. The fourth is Kaintuck Brown. What's that?
The Library of Congress Name Authority File for Timothy Hay
[1] under heading "Sources" identifies three pseudonyms: Golden MacDonald (6 works catalog records), Timothy Hay (1 work), Juniper Sage (joint pseud.). If I understand correctly, LC's source is Contemporary Authors vol. 136 --which I don't know.
I do not find Kaintuck Brown as author/creator of any works in LC Catalog, which suggests but doesn't show that no books by KB were published.

Marcus' biography does not have the Kaintuck name at all. Nor is any work authored by that name in WorldCat. I'm thinking it is a spurious name. In the absence of proof of its use, I recommend a deletion. 8.38.167.245 ( talk) 18:06, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
Per the above, moving to delete Kaintuck Brown as a pseudonym. The name does not appear in Marcus' biography, in WorldCat, or in LC. The only reference outside of wikipedia I've found is in a "fun facts about authors" book. Seems fair to hold that the book's information is coming from the bad information here.

LC catalog gives 1935 copyright date for The Duck with photos by Ylla. [3] Is that a catalog error? We say 1952 and give 1937 for her first book.
-- P64 ( talk) 01:12, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
According to Marcus, The Duck came out posthumously in spring 1953. (Marcus 282) I think the LC entry is a catalogue error. Looks like an inversion of the date. 8.38.167.245 ( talk) 18:09, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
We provide no bibliog data but this listing. I will add a few notes while LC catalog is convenient.
LC also lists
That's all we say.
