==Early life==
Margaret Edwards was born in the small farming community of Childress, Texas. She first learned to read using a Wine of Cardui calendar her mother received from a local druggist and she gained further practice by reading passages from a King James Version of the Bible with her sister and her mother on a nightly basis.〔Edwards, M. A. (1994). ''The Fair Garden and the Swarm of Beasts'' (pp. 2-5). Chicago: American Library Association.〕 As a teenager, she attended Trinity University, in Waxahachie, Texas, gaining the education and skills necessary to become a Latin teacher after graduating in 1922. After teaching in Texas for several years, she moved to New York City where she attended Columbia University. In 1928, she received a Master’s Degree in Latin. After almost 10 years of working in libraries, she went on to receive her library degree from Columbia University in 1941.〔Lapides, L. F. (2002) Margaret Alexander Edwards, 1902-1988.
