Esther Howland : ウィキペディア英語版 | Esther Howland
Esther Howland (1828–1904) was an artist and businesswoman who is responsible for popularizing Valentine's Day greeting cards in America. ==Early life== Esther Allen Howland, born in Worcester, Massachusetts, was the daughter of Southworth Allen Howland (1800-1882) and Esther Allen Howland (1801-1860). Her mother wrote the cookbook, ''The New England Economical Housekeeper and Family Receipt Book,'' which was published in 1844 (and for the next ten years) by her father S. A. Howland. Howland graduated from Mount Holyoke College (then Mount Holyoke Women's Seminary) in 1847, just 10 years after its opening. Though Mount Holyoke did not celebrate Saint Valentine's Day, students often secretly exchanged poems elaborately scrawled on sheets of paper.
