  She was born in Germantown, Philadelphia. Louise received the bulk of her knowledge from her father, Bronson Alcott, as she was more personally engaged in her education. Louise May was friends with the Emersons and the Toro family. Her first book, Flower Fairy Tales (1854), was written personally for Emerson’s daughter as an entertaining tale.

  Before becoming a writer, Louise May Alcott worked as a seamstress in order to make at least some contribution to the family budget. Working as a nurse during the Civil War, Louise publishes her work entitled “Hospital Sketches” (1863), which she informs her family in a letter. Her subsequent work was the novel “Mood”, which was published in 1864.

  For the first time, Louise Olcott achieved unprecedented fame and wealth with the work “Little Women” (1868), which is one of the most popular children's books ever written. The novel, which tells about the adventures of adolescents, 4 March sisters, is largely autobiographical, as the author presents himself as a lively, energetic Joe Mart. The sequel to this novel is: “Good Wives” (1869), “Little Men” (1871), and “Guys Joe” (1886).

  Other works by Louise Olcott for young readers include: “The Old-Fashioned Girl” (1870), “8 Kuzin” (1875), and “Under the Lilac” (1879). All of them are family paintings, which the author described with warmth and perception of Victorian (obsolete) America.

  She also writes novels for adults, namely “Work” (1873), which is based on the experience of the author himself, whose biographies contained difficult moments in which Louise May Alcott was a wet-nurse for her entire family. Also, the unfinished work “Diana” and “PERSIS”, the study of the relationship between two women artists. Another adult volumetric novel is “The Long Fateful Love for Chase” (1866), which was initially rejected by its publishers, as it was too sensational. Then, it was discovered in a manuscript in the early 1990s and finally published in 1995.

  Луиза Мэй Олкотт была, вероятно, первым романистом, использовавшим тему проклятия мумии в своем произведении: в 1869 г. она опубликовала рассказ под названием «Заблудившийся в пирамиде, или Проклятие мумии».
  - В американской литературе первое, немного саркастичное упоминание о чем-то похожем на посудомоечную машину встречается еще в 1869 году, в книге Луизы Мэй Олкотт «Хорошие жены»: «…бесполезные скобяные товары: от игрушечной копилки для медяков до чудесного бака, моющего посуду паром и грозящего взорваться во время этой процедуры».
