Edna Ferber was an American novelist, short story writer, and dramatist who lived from 1885 to 1968. So Huge (1924), Show Boat (1926; made into the famed 1927 musical), Cimarron (1929; made into the Academy Award-winning 1931 film), Giant (1952; made into the 1956 Hollywood film), and Ice Palace (1958; made into the 1960 film) were among her novels. Ferber's works tended to have strong female protagonists, as well as a large and varied cast of supporting characters. Ferber illustrated her idea that humans are individuals and that the not-so-pretty people had the best character by highlighting at least one outstanding secondary character who faced persecution ethnically or for other reasons.
