Collection Profile
In the early 1940s, Hervey Allen was editor of Rinehart and Company's Rivers of America series. Visiting his aunt who lived in Miami, Allen stopped by Marjory Stoneman Douglas's house to see if she might write a book about the Miami River. She thought that there was not much to say about the Miami River and that maybe she should write about the Everglades instead. Allen agreed, and so did Douglas embark on an adventure that would consume the rest of her life. Her seminal book The Everglades: River of Grass was published in 1947. As historian Robin Faith Bachin notes, "The Everglades are the ecological heart of Florida." Stretching 100 miles from Lake Okeechobee to Florida Bay, this unique ecosystem is home to a wide variety of wildlife, ranging from the Great Blue Heron to the endangered Florida panther. It was the historic home of several Native American tribes and today includes part of the Seminole tribal lands. Although the Everglades were named a national park in 1947, the encroachments of civilization continue to this day. From the publication of her first book until her death in 1998 at the age of 108, Marjory Stoneman Douglas eloquently celebrated the mysteries of South Florida's wilderness and championed the preservation of South Florida's River of Grass. A writer and environmentalist, Douglas came to Florida in 1915 at the age of 25, fleeing a failed marriage. She joined her father Frank Bryan Stoneman as a writer at the

*Includes IB tests. **Includes Cambridge, community college or other types of college-level final exams. Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology in Fairfax County, with a rating of 7.486 and an Equity and Excellence rate of 100 percent, was not ranked because it is a magnet school with a selective admissions policy and an average SAT reading and math score, 1456, higher than the highest average for any regular enrollment school in the country. The index is designed to show which schools are challenging average students and does not work well with schools like Jefferson that have few or no average students. Briar Woods and Freedom in Loudoun County, Battlefield and Freedom in Prince William County, Skyline in Warren County, Clarksburg and Northwood in Montgomery County, Dr. Henry A.

What should be done with Marjory Stoneman Douglas' house? E-mail Mark.Glisson@dep.state.fl.us Marjory Stoneman Douglas led an incredible life. Born April 7, 1890 in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Douglas, graduating at the top of her class at Wessley. After a failed marriage she moved to Miami in 1915 to work for her father at a local newspaper which would later become the Miami Herald. When her father assigned her a story to cover of the first woman to join the US Navy, the ambitious reporter enlisted herself. When she returned to Miami she dedicated herself to preserving the natural beauty and resources of South Florida. In 1938 Douglas published a pamphlet promoting the preservation of Fairchild Tropical Gardens. In 1947 she published, The River of Grass, which is considered by many to be the most important book ever written on the Everglades. The book highlighted Florida’s ecological dependence on the river.

    Marjory Stoneman Douglas: 1880-1998
    By Charles Flowers
    Marjory Stoneman Douglas, one of the leading defenders of the Everglades and a longtime friend of the Seminole Tribe, died in the early morning hours on May 13 at her home in Coconut Grove. She was 108. Mrs. Douglas was the founder of Friends of the Everglades and as strong an advocate for wilderness preservation as Florida has ever had. She was best-known as the author of The Everglades: River of Grass. That work caused a shift in thinking about the Everglades - from a swamp to a slow-moving river - and became the Bible for most of that area's preservation and restoration efforts in the last half of the 20th Century. Those efforts, including setting aside more than 1.5 million acres of Everglades and restoring a stretch of the Kissimmee River, have undone much of the ecological damage that virtually threatened the existence of this unique natural treasure. The same year her book was published - 1947 - the Everglades was designated a national park. The park opened a year later. "The first time I met Marjory was during my panther killing trial," James E. Billie, chairman of the Seminole Tribe says. "She was smart enough to know that the trial was motivated by politics. She knew our Indian culture and knew what was really going on.

    Marjory Stoneman Douglas By Jerry Wilkinson Marjory Stoneman Douglas was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on April 7, 1890 and brought up with her mother's people in Massachusetts, went to the public school of Taunton, and graduated from Wellesley College, Massachusetts in 1912. Her father's people were Quakers and pioneers. He, Frank Bryant Stoneman attorney and judge, and went to Florida (circa 1909) before she did. He was founder-editor of The Miami Herald following an earlier paper he had started. When Marjory decided to go south circa 1912, as a result of an unworkable marriage, it was wonderful to find a new country with all the excitement of the tropics, a beginning city and a job on a newspaper. She lived with her father and stepmother, Lilla B. (Shine), who was her first and best friend.
    She went overseas in the WW1, doing Red Cross publicity out of Paris and came back after a year to be an associate editor for her father. She marched for suffrage in the 1920s while writing books, magazine articles, drama, fiction and poetry.
    She always wanted to write fiction. Another new life began when she started selling stories to the
