Carolyn Keene was my favorite author when I was a young teen, but I later learned she never existed. The first three books in the popular series were written in 1930 by Edward Stratemeyer, the next few by his daughter, and the rest by anonymous authors, all using the psuedonym Carolyn Keene. Ms. magazine called the main character in this series "a role model for young feminists." This mystery-solving teenager was Nancy Drew.
