Author. Born in Raymond, Mississippi, she lived for many years in San Juan, Puerto Rico, where she was a Cultural Affairs specialist for the U. S. State Department. Her fame rests on one fine volume of poetry, "Sea-Change" (1923), which was praised by William Faulkner, among others. Lee's 13 other books include five mystery novels written in collaboration with Maurice Guiness under the single pseudonym "Newton Gayle," as well as translations of Spanish-language poets. Neglected for decades, Lee's work has recently enjoyed a considerable revival of interest. (bio by: Robert Edwards)
