Helen Hunt Jackson Writes for the Native Americans
By Sharon Fabian |
|
1 Growing up, Helen Hunt Jackson learned to do the right thing. After all, her father was a preacher. She learned the importance of writing, too. Her mother was a writer and her father was also a professor. The famous poet, Emily Dickinson, was a classmate of hers. Later in her life, Helen Hunt Jackson was also influenced by Harriet Beecher Stowe, the author of the anti-slavery novel Uncle Tom's Cabin. The success of that book showed her how much a piece of writing could influence people's ideas.
