Antonia Forest (26 May 1915 – 28 November 2003) was the pseudonym of Patricia Giulia Caulfield Kate Rubinstein, an English writer of children's novels whose real name was not made public during her lifetime. She is best known for the Marlow series. ==Life== Forest was born to part Russian-Jewish and Irish parents on 26 May 1915.〔Guardian, 9/12/2003〕 She grew up in Hampstead, London, and was educated at South Hampstead High School and University College, London, where she studied journalism. During the Second World War she worked at an Army Pay Office.〔Heazlewood, Anne, ''The Marlows and Their Maker'', Girls Gone By Publishers, 2007. ISBN 978-1-904417-90-3〕 It could be said that she embraced the way of life of the upper middle classes of the English shires with the zeal of the convert. From 1938 until her death she lived in Bournemouth, Dorset, and from the end of 1946 she was a Roman Catholic. Eventually she called herself "middle-aged, narrow-minded, anti-progressive AND PROUD OF IT". Forest was an enthusiastic letter-writer, corresponding both with her readers and literary figures such as GB Stern.〔Heazlewood, Anne ''The Marlows and Their Maker'', Girls Gone By Publishers, 2007. ISBN 978-1-904417-90-3〕 She never married, and for many years supported herself by renting out part of her house in Bournemouth.〔
