Katherine O'Flaherty (February 8, 1851–August 22, 1904), known by her married name Kate Chopin, was an American author of short stories and novels.
She married Oscar Chopin on June 9, 1870 in St. Louis, Missouri.
Her best-known work, The Awakening, is the story of a dissatisfied wife who explores her sexuality and commits suicide. It was published in 1899, was out of print for several decades, and is now readily available.
In 1900 she wrote The Gentleman from New Orleans, and that year was listed in the first edition of Who's Who.
Kate Chopin died of a brain hemorrhage.

Kate Chopin is an amazing author. I am doing my term paper on her and I read The Awakening... breathtaking! Edna is the classic symbol of feminism. Always pushing her boundries, and stretching the limits. Even her death was surprising, Chopin had her go back to the beginning to come to an end: absolutly genius! I can not wait to turn this paper in! But I was wondering if anyone knew her inspiration for writing the novel?
