Mary Roberts Rinehart (1876–1958) was a novelist and playwright best known for her mystery stories, which combined humor with ingenuity. The success of her novels The Circular Staircase and The Man in Lower Ten established her reputation as an important American mystery writer. At one time she was the highest paid writer in America.

One critic called her autobiography, My Story, her finest book.
Kathryn Yarman, a voice talent and audiobook narrator, is a former actress who teaches theater at St. Louis University High School.
