Anna Alice Chapin was born in New York City, the daughter of Dr. Frederick Windle Chapin and the former Anna J. Hoppin. Her father, a native of Providence, Rhode Island, attended Trinity College, Hartford and received his medical degree from New York University.〔(New York University, General Alumni Catalogue: Medical alumni, 1833-1907, 1908, p. 266 ) accessed 6.17.13〕 Her mother was most likely a close relative of the architect Howard Hoppin (1854-1940), who designed several buildings in the Pomfret Street Historic District, including the Chapin home.〔(''American Architect and Architecture'', Volume 19, p. vii ) accessed 6.17.13〕 Chapin received a private education and studied music under Harry Rowe Shelley and published her first book, ''The Story of the Rhinegold'', when she was just 17 years old. Her other works would include: ''Wonder Tales from Wagner'' (1898); ''Wotan, Siegfried, and Brunhilde'', (1898); ''Masters of Music'' (1901); ''The True Story of Humpty Dumpty: How He Was Rescued by Three Mortal Children in Make Believe Land'', Illustrated & Decorated by Ethel Franklin Betts (1905); ''Discords'', (1905); ''The Heart of Music'' (1906); ''Königskinder'', (1911); ''The Nowadays Fairy Book'' (1911); ''The Street-Car Mystery'' (1911); ''The Spirit of the Sea'' (1912); ''The Topsy Turvy Fairy'' (1913); ''The Eagle's Mate'' (1914); ''The Every Day Fairy Book'' (1915); ''Mountain Madness'' (1917); and ''Jane'' (1920).〔(''The Encyclopedia Americana: A Library of Universal Knowledge'', Volume 6, 1918, p. 296 ) accessed 6.17.13〕
Chapin also wrote many short stories for magazines and newspaper syndication, and a play produced in New York City in 1910 entitled ''The Deserters'', written with her husband, Robert Peyton Carter. She'd married Carter, a stage actor who often worked with Maude Adams, in 1906.〔Anna Alice Chapin Dead. ''The New York Times,'' February 27, 1920, p. 13〕
