Alice Steinbach (1933-2012)

Alice Steinbach (1933-2012) was a freelance writer whose essays and travel sketches often deal with what she called "lessons from a woman's life." As a reporter for the Baltimore Sun, where she won a Pulitzer Prize for feature writing in 1985, Steinbach wrote a column about her ninth-grade creative writing teacher. It became the title piece in a collection of personal essays, The Miss Dennis School of Writing (1996).
