All content is visible. Olive Constant Dougan was born Olive Constant McMicken in London in 1904. She earned a degree at the University of London School of Librarianship…in 1926. Three years later, she married Robert Ormes Dougan. During the 1930s and 1940s she began composing poems, short stories and juvenile novels, submitting them for publication. She eventually published seven books during her life, all in Great Britain. In 1958 Robert became a librarian at the Huntington Library in San Marino, California. While living in Southern California, Olive Dougan began writing books aimed at young American girls. None of these were published prior to her death in early 1963 of heart disease. After her death, Robert Dougan published a small collection of her poems by the Raccoon Press in Arcadia, California (in a print run of 250 copies) to give to friends and family. Some of the poems in "Shadows and Other Poems" had previously been published in The Poetry Review in 1936.
