Catherine Crow (1803-1876) was an English novelist, children's writer, and playwright. On stage, her writings reflect the trials and tribulations of family love and life, with 'Aristodemus' and the melodrama 'The Cruel Kindness'.
On the page, however, Crow turned to German gothic writers, leading to her supernatural works 'A Story of a Weir-Wolf' and 'The Night-Side of Nature' - the latter of which influenced the likes of Charles Baudelaire.
Meanwhile, her children's stories span ' Uncle Tom's Cabin', 'Pippie's Warning; or, Mind Your Temper' and 'The Adventures of a Monkey'. Crow remains today the first female author of werewolf fiction.
