Elia Wilkinson Peattie (1862-1935) was an American author, journalist and critic. As a child she was an avid reader, and despite leaving school at 14, she quickly became recognized as a brilliant short story writer.

'Story of an Obstinate Corpse' is the eerie tale of a woman who never wanted her photograph taken in life...and after death continues to confound photographers.
