Alice Cary (April 26, 1820 - February 12, 1871) was a poet born near Cincinnati, Ohio.

 The Cary Sisters
Alice Cary (April 26, 1820-February 12, 1871) and Phoebe Cary (September 4, 1824-July 31, 1871) were in their day well known and loved for their poetry and other writings.
Alice often claimed that the ghost of little Lucy, in her favorite red dress, was seen a number of times on the farm, once by a young nephew unaware of the child's existence.
Fetterley characterizes Alice, as a writer of fiction, as "a master of the uncanny, of the dream sequence, of narrative generated by the logic of deeply interior and nonrational psychic life," in the tradition of Edgar Allen Poe and Nathaniel Hawthorne.

 Alice Cary (1820-1871)
It was not taken as seriously as were the novel and poetry and no theory existed as to what kind of fictional sketch a woman should or should not write in order to demonstrate that she was in fact a woman.
Cary's "Preface" to the first volume of Clovernook sketches, published in 1852, lays out her theory of realism and the instructor should be familiar with it.
Alice Cary thus provides the instructor with the opportunity to at once raise the issue of the bias in literary history and the issue of the development of realism as an American mode.

 Alice in Wonderland Review - The Ultimate Cary Grant Pages
Examination of Alice by the Red and the White Queens is a first rate bit of spirited comedy by Edna May Oliver; W.C. Fields brusque handling of the Humpty-Dumpty scene is excellent, and throughout the acting of Charlotte Henry, as Alice is entirely unaffected and charming.
Alice and those pleasantly mad companions of her trips in Wonderland and through the Looking-Glass are now busy entertaining youngsters, and those who would like to be, in 225 theatres in this country and Canada, including the Paramount of this city.
In the initial stages of the film, Alice is eager to get out in the snow, and as the time passes and the world becomes unreal, she finds herself visiting the looking-glass room, where the clock has an insolent fashion of booming out the hour.

 Alice Car Y
The stepmother was wholly unsympathetic regarding the literary aspirations of Alice and her younger sister Phoebe ; but while they were ready and willing to aid to the full extent of their strength in household labor, they persisted in a determination to study and write when the day's work was done.
Alice began to write verses at the age of eighteen, and wrote largely and acceptably for the press in prose and verse for the next ten years without compensation.
Alice's last illness was protracted for several years, and attended by much suffering, but was borne with wonderful patience and resignation, and she was tenderly cared for by her stronger sister.

 PAL: Alice Cary (1820-1871)and Phoebe Cary (1824-1871)
Nevertheless they were for their time well educated, Alice by their mother and Phoebe by Alice, and they early developed a taste for literature.
Alice's first published poem appeared in the Sentinel, a Cincinnati Universalist newspaper, when she was 18; for 10 years thereafter she continued to contribute poems and prose sketches to various periodicals with no remuneration.
Alice, much more prolific than her sister, enjoyed the higher reputation during her lifetime, although Phoebe was later held in greater critical esteem for the wit and feeling of her poems.
