Mumford, Ethel Watts
Entry updated 23 December 2024. Tagged: Author.
(1876-1940) US poet, playwright and author, whose books were mostly nonfantastic, though Out of the Ashes (1913) emits an aura just short of any supernatural exudation from the fevered brow of its entrepreneur protagonist. Mumford is of sf interest primarily for a short story, "When Time Turned" (January 1901 Black Cat), one of the very earliest Time in Reverse tales to represent the actual experience of growing younger.
