Author Biography

Lella Warren was born in Clayton, Alabama, and developed a passion for storytelling at a young age. After attending college and publishing her first novel, she gained recognition for her short fiction and articles in national magazines and newspapers. Inspired by her father's desire, Warren embarked on a trilogy set in Alabama, delving into her family's history and the local context. The first installment, Foundation Stone, garnered significant acclaim, drawing comparisons to Gone With the Wind. Despite her subsequent work on the trilogy and other literary endeavors, Warren's unfinished third book remained unpublished at the time of her passing in 1982. The archival collection of Lella Warren's papers is currently housed at Auburn University in Montgomery.
