- Breve biografia
- Dorothy Delius Allan Black was born on 1890 in Bradford, Yorkshire. She was the daughter of Clare Edith Delius (1866–1954) and her husband J. W. A. Black, who were married in 1889. Her mother's brother was the famous composer Frederick Delius (1862–1934). She was married with Hugh MacLeish in 1916.
She started to write very young, and her first novels were published in 1916. She used her maiden name Dorothy Black and the male pseudonym Peter Delius. At first, she wrote different types of books, including poetry and children's fiction, before concentrating on romance fiction. She travelled widely, seeking inspiration for her books set in different parts of the world. In 1943 she published anonymously Letters of an Indian Judge to an English Gentlewoman, later reprinted under her name. During the summer of 1949, she assisted the writer Marion Crawford, who was writing a series of features on life with Princess Margaret. In 1960 she wrote her autobiography The Foot of the Rainbow. In total, she published over a hundred novels and several short stories.
Dorothy Black became a vice-president of the Romantic Novelists' Association, along with Barbara Cartland. She passed away in 1977 in Scotland.
