Olive Logan

Olive Logan (April 22, 1839 – April 27, 1909) was an American actress and author, daughter of Irish-American actor and playwright Cornelius Ambrosius Logan and Eliza Akeley.
==Career==
She was born in Elmira, New York and attended Wesleyan Female College (1850-1) and the Catholic Academy of the Sacred Heart there. Her acting career was short, beginning with her debut at the Arch Street Theatre in Philadelphia in 1854 as 'Mrs. Bobtail' in ''Bobtail and Wagtail'' and ending in 1857 when she married journalist Henry A. Delisle and went to Europe. While in Europe she became a journalist herself; her first book, ''Photographs of Paris Life'' (1861), was a collection of pieces on Paris life written for American periodicals.〔''Boston Evening Transcript'', April 28, 1909, "Famous American Journalist", p. 5〕 An 1865 novel, ''Chateau Frissac: or, Home Scenes in France'', "was written with the view of showing the evils resulting from the well-known French ''mariage de convenance''"〔''Chateau Frissac'', Olive Logan, New York: Appleton and Co., 1865, Preface, p. v〕 Olive was divorced from Delisle in 1869. Olive was influenced by Artemis Ward to take up public speaking where she spoke on social and political topics. She returned briefly to the stage from 1864 until 1867. In 1864 she appeared at Wallack's Theatre in New York City in her own play of ''Eveleen''. She corresponded for many periodicals and wrote, besides plays (including a metrical rendering of Coppée's ''La Pasant''), a dramatization of Wilkie Collins's ''Armadale'', and several books on theatrical matters, such as ''Before the Footlights and Behind the Scenes'' (1870). She also published the novels ''Get Thee Behind Me, Satan!'' (1872) and ''They Met By Chance'' (1873).
Some of Logan's lectures were on woman suffrage; she spoke at the 1869 convention of the American Equal Rights Association and was a contributor to ''The Revolution''.〔(Eminent Women I Have Met (see note 71) )〕
