Biography Herne was born in Boston, Massachusetts, in 1880, the daughter of playwright James A. Herne and stage actress Katherine Corcoran. Her sister was actress Chrystal Herne. She had always dreamed of writing plays, and she began writing and acting in her teenage years. She had a number of plays hit Broadway in the 1910s and 1920s. By the early 1920s, she was employed as a scenarist at Paramount, where she worked on films like ''Dangerous Money'' and ''The Snow Bride''.

Writers From Boston
A writer is a person who uses written words in different writing styles and techniques to communicate ideas. Writers produce different forms of literary art and creative writing such as novels, short stories, books, poetry, travelogues, plays, screenplays, teleplays, songs, and essays as well as other reports and news articles that may be of interest to the general public. Writers' texts are published across a wide range of media. Skilled writers who are able to use language to express ideas well, often contribute significantly to the cultural content of a society.
