Description: Picture of the Mary Roberts Rinehart house located at 954 Beech Avenue in the Allegheny West neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on May 1, 2010. The historical marker on the front of the house says the following: "Allegheny West. Home of Mary Roberts Rinehart. Prolific author (1876-1958) of The Circular Staircase - written in this house in 1907 - and one of America's first and most popular writers of mystery stories as well as fiction and biography; the first female American war correspondent (World War I); a pioneer scriptwriter during Hollywood's golden era; and an outspoken, ambitious and independent advocate of a lifestyle of opportunity for women. Her characterizations of the independent female and her own adventurous life, combining career and family, heralded the emergence of the twentieth century woman. The Allegheny West Historic District." Rinehart lived at this house with her family from 1907 to 1912. [1]
