Mariel C. BRADY [2] |
- Mariel Brady wrote articles and stories for Good Housekeeping, Munsey's, All-Story Weekly, Grit, Thermopylæ and McCall's magazine from 1915 to 1939. The Prize Winner's father, Captain Edwin L. Brady USN died when she sixteen while her grandfather, Ships Master William Nicholas Brady USN wrote a, still in print today, book for seamen called Kedge Anchor which was published by D Appleton & Co. The distinctive query phrase "funny ha-ha"/ "funny peculiar" was credited to Miss Brady by The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations and even the Oxford English Dictionary for her work in "Genevieve Gertrude" published in 1928. Her Billy stories in McCall's Magazine resulted in her receiving a "perfectly amazing number of nice letters from all over the United States" she said, and her agent has just sold the English rights of one of her stories.
