BiographyHistory

Mrs E. S. Craven Green was an English poet, writer and editor. Some of her poetry was published in Australian newspapers and periodicals in the nineteenth century.

Green's first published book of poetry A Legend of Mona (1825) was influenced by time she spent on the Isle of Man. The book was published under her maiden name, Eliza. S. Craven.

According to Rosemary Scott's biography of Green in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography online, Green 'also wrote prose, chiefly tales and sketches, reportedly under assumed names'. Her best known work was a selected work of poetry published in 1858, Sea Weeds and Heath Flowers, or, Memories of Mona.

Green also spent some time living in Manchester and married a comedian, James Green, in Wakefield, Yorkshire.
