From 1922 to 1926, Mitchell completed hundreds of articles, profiles, columns, interviews, sketches, and book reviews, the best of which are now compiled for the first time. This book displays Margaret Mitchells talent for writing in her unencumbered youth while she was an impressionable young woman. Defying convention, the recent debutante shook things up as one of the first female columnists for the South’s largest newspaper. More than a decade before Margaret Mitchell the novelist conceived the immortal fictional world of her now legendary and hotly debated novel, Mitchell the reporter was pounding the real life streets of her native Atlanta in search of the who, what, when, and where for her popular column in the Atlanta Journal. The 64 columns in Margaret Mitchell, Reporter present a never before seen portrait of the lively, far ranging mind and an insightful observer well on the way to her full literary power long before the world even knew her name. ![]() |
