About Daisy Ashford

Margaret Mary Julia "Daisy" Ashford (7 April 1881 – 15 January 1972) was during her childhood a writer of fiction, but abandoned her literary career as a teenager. The Young Visiters, or, Mr. Salteena's Plan, written at the age of 9, is considered her masterpiece; its themes are true love and the immutability of class distinctions. The Young Visiters was published with the author’s original spelling and punctuation in 1919, and was adapted as a stage-play in 1920, as a musical in 1968, and as a TV film starring Jim Broadbent in 2003.
