About
Jump to
Eliza Putnam Heaton (née, Putnam; August 8, 1860 – January 2, 1919) was an American journalist and editor. After her marriage and removal to New York, Heaton began newspaper work, serving first as special writer and afterward as a managing editor in newspaper and syndicate offices, until failing health made arduous tasks impossible. When the New York Recorder was started in 1891, she undertook a task never before attempted by any New York daily – to run a daily news page dealing with women's movements. Marooned in Sicily by ill-health, the author turned for occupation to the study of peasant life, a study eagerly pursued until it was cut short by her death in 1919. Her By-paths in Sicily, could fairly be presented as completed.
