Author Bio
Emilie K. Baker (1873-1951) was married to Franklin T. Baker, founder of the Department of the Teaching of English at Columbia Teachers College. She published a number of volumes of re-told myths and legends with the aim of making the stories accessible to the widest audience but had an enjoyable but educational purpose at the heart of her storytelling. Her works include Tales from Ancient Greece and Rome and Out of the Northland.
