Schweitzer Classification
Person
Dawn Powell (1896-1965) was a prolific American novelist, playwright, and short story writer. Although she gained a degree of critical success in her lifetime and earned the respect of writers such as Ernest Hemingway (his "favorite living novelist"), E. E. Cummings, Gore Vidal ("our best comic novelist"), and J. B Priestly, her work was not fully appreciated until well after her death.
