Davis, Rebecca Blaine Harding (1831-1910), essayist and writer Rebecca Harding was born on June 24, 1831, in Washington, Pennsylvania. She graduated from the Washington (Pennsylvania) Female Seminary in 1848. An avid reader, she had begun dabbling in the writing of verse and stories in her youth. Some of her early pieces were published, but her reputation as an author of startlingly realistic, sometimes grim, portraits of life began only with the publication of her story "Life in the Iron Mills" in the Atlantic Monthly in April 1861. From 1861 to 1862 the Atlantic serialized a story that appeared in book form in the latter year as Margaret Howth. In March 1863 Harding married L. Clarke Davis of Philadelphia, later an editor of the Philadelphia Inquirer and the Philadelphia Public Ledger. Over the next three decades Rebecca Davis' fiction, children's stories, essays, and articles appeared regularly in most of the leading magazines of the day, and from 1869 she was for several years also a contributing editor of the New York Tribune.

In the late 1850s, Davis began publishing reviews and stories in a local newspaper. In December 1860, the unknown author sent the manuscript of her novella

Rebecca Harding Davis Born in Pennsylvania Rebecca Harding Davis grew up in the mill town of Big Spring, Alabama where her observations of the changes brought about by industrialization had a life-long influence on the themes of her writing. She saw the conditions of women, particularly working women, as a "...tragedy more real ... than any other in life." Illustration for "By-paths in the Mountains," by Davis In her many articles for Atlantic Monthly, for Appletons, Harper's New Monthly Magazine, The Century, Lippencott's and Scribner's, and other journals and magazines, she sought to expose inequities through the real and the commonplace. Her fiction often characterized as radical by her readers, moved from addressing the abuse of workers by industrial capitalists, to prostitution, to slavery. In her desire to expose life's inequities she pulled from incidences of "accurate history" ... closely observed human interactions and non-glorified depictions of daily life sometimes startling in their brutal opinion. She was not necessarily a sympathetic observer. She frequently pointed out life and geography that was "peculiar" and exotic to her and by doing so, distanced herself from the experience and revealed her romantic heritage. She often traveled to western North Carolina and her serialized article about the region, "By-Paths in the Mountains," for

R EBECCA H ARDING D AVIS Fine Arts Inducted 1984 Rebecca Harding Davis was a pioneer in literary realism. In 1861, when her story, "Life in the Iron Mills," was published anonymously in The Atlantic Monthly, few people in Wheeling could have imagined that this novella about human tragedy had been written by their 30-year-old spinster neighbor, Rebecca Harding. Born in Washington, Pa., in 1831, she had lived in Wheeling from the age of five. Her English-born father, Richard, was an insurance executive and also city treasurer for 14 years. As a teen-ager, she attended Washington Female Seminary, where she was graduated valedictorian in 1848. There was nothing in her upbringing to suggest she would be able to picture so vividly the grim life of immigrant industrial workers and their harsh working conditions. However, she was obviously influence by the change in Wheeling from an idyllic Virginia village to a smoke-filled milltown. The Civil War created an even more dramatic change in Wheeling and in subsequent work, no longer anonymous, she told of the "general wretchedness, the squalid misery, which entered into every individual life." She described the savagery of war and her talent drew the admiration of the New England writers Emerson, Holmes, Alcott and her favorite, Nathaniel Hawthorne all of whom she met while traveling with her brother to Boston. She also caught the attention of Philadelphia lawyer L. Clarke Davis. They struck up a correspondence, soon met and were engaged. They were married in St. Matthew's Episcopal Church in Wheeling during a March snowstorm in '63 and took up residence in Philadelphia.
