Maria Susanna Cummins bola americká spisovateľka, ktorej diela sa vyznačovali sentimentálnym rozprávaním a prenikavou psychológiou postáv. Jej najznámejší román, vydaný v roku 1854, sa stal mimoriadne populárnym a získal si obdiv za svoju originalitu a prirodzenosť. Hoci žiadne z jej neskorších diel nedosiahlo rovnaký úspech, jej raná tvorba zanechala nezmazateľnú stopu v americkej literatúre. Cummins sa vo svojej tvorbe sústredila na zobrazenie ľudských emócií a morálnych dilem s citom pre detail a pôsobivé vykreslenie.
