by Margaret Lewis
Category: Biography & Autobiography

Dame Ngaio Marsh was perhaps best known for her mystery novels, which succeeded in combining ingenious plotting with interesting characterization, but she was also a respected artist and was deeply committed to the theatre. This authorized biography describes a life divided between her native New Zealand, where she was a hardworking Shakespearian producer, and England, where she lived the life of a glamorous celebrity.
