Marjorie Hillis

Marjorie Hillis (1889-1971) was an American author of popular nonfiction books for women in the 1930s.
==Early life==
Born Margaret Louise Hillis in Peoria, Illinois, Marjorie Hillis was the second of three children of Dr. Newell Dwight Hillis (1858-1929), a Congregationalist minister, and Annie Louise Patrick Hillis (1862-1930), herself a published author. 〔Annie Louise Patrick Hillis wrote ''The American Woman and Her Home'', published in 1911.〕 The family moved to Brooklyn, New York, in 1899, when Marjorie's father became pastor of Plymouth Congregational Church there, a pulpit once held by the famous abolitionist Henry Ward Beecher. After completing her education at Miss Dana's School for Young Ladies, a private school in New Jersey, and traveling abroad for a year, Marjorie went to work writing captions for ''Vogue'' magazine's pattern book.
==Literary career==

Hillis eventually became ''Vogue's'' assistant editor. In 1936, she published the year's number eight nonfiction bestseller, ''Live Alone and Like It,'' an advice book for young women on how to live independently. It was followed in 1937 by ''Orchids on Your Budget'', which became that year's number five nonfiction bestseller.〔''Ibid.''〕 ''Orchids on Your Budget'', which was subtitled ''Live Smartly on What You Have'', was built around hypothetical “cases” that encouraged women to match their goals with their financial means.
