1926. American poet and novelist, Roberts is best known for her novels and stories of the Kentucky mountain people, whose dialect and customs she realistically portrayed. The Time of Man begins: Ellen wrote her name in the air with her finger, Ellen Chesser, leaning forward and writing on the horizontal plane.
