Anne Brontë

Anne Brontë was born in 1820, the youngest of six children of a Yorkshire clergyman, and lost her mother at the age of one. Of the three sisters, she was the one who was a governess for the longest: about six years, in two families of the region. She published two novels under a pseudonym, and her elder sister prevented the reissue of the second after her death, judging the subject a mistake. She died of tuberculosis at twenty-nine in Scarborough, where she had wished to go.
