Lenora Mattingly Weber

I am not yet familiar with Lenora Mattingly Weber, a popular series writer, so the information below is provided by Betsy, a Weber fan.

Lenora Mattingly Weber was born in Missouri and left the state with her family when she was 12 to homestead on the Colorado plains. She attended high school in Denver and, after graduation, married and made her home there. She died in January 1971.

In addition to her Beany Malone and Katie Rose Belford/Stacy Belford series of books, she wrote a monthly column for Extension Magazine and short stories for The Saturday Evening Post, Ladies' Home Journal, Good Housekeeping and McCall's.

All of her manuscripts and copies of first editions of her books were presented to the Denver Public Library in a ceremony in November 1969. They are part of the Colorado Authors Collection in the library's Western History Department.

Here is a list of her books:
