  Gertrude Stein - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gertrude Stein was born and lived in Allegheny, Pennsylvania until the age of three, when she and her Jewish-German family moved first to Vienna and then to Paris.
Stein named writer and photographer Carl Van Vechten as her literary executor, and he helped to usher into print works of hers which remained unpublished at the time of her death.
Stein predominantly used the present tense, "ing", creating a continuous present in her work, which Grahn argues is a consequence of the previous principles, especially commonality and centeredness.

 William Edwards Cook - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
William Edwards Cook (August 31, 1881 – November 10, 1959) was an American-born expatriate artist, architectural patron, and long-time friend of American writer Gertrude Stein.
As a result, Cook was soon regarded as a young society artist (somewhat in the manner of John Singer Sargent, whom he admired and was acquainted with), and so received a flood of requests from other dignitaries to have their portraits painted.
Inadvertently (as described in a piece called "A Movie" by Stein), he and Moallic apparently contributed to the arrest of U.S. Army thieves, with the result that they were invited to ride (together, in their Renault) in the famous victory parade through the Arc de Triomphe in July 1919.

 Gertrude Stein, William James, and habit in the shadow of war Twentieth Century Literature - Find Articles
Stein's household felicities--her late mornings, her love of large meals, her relationships with her servants, her attachment to Basket the poodle (and subsequent poodles named Basket)--constituted a life of specific routines that, even when the two world wars ravaged Europe, she was exceptionally reluctant to give up.
Similarly, William James--Stein's mentor, with whom she studied in the 1890s when she was a student at Radcliffe--celebrates habit as a result of the freedom to choose, and the subsequent indication of a fully formed character.
Stein views habits as neither life denying in Pater's sense, nor prosaic: "Repeating is a wonderful thing in living being," she writes in The Making of Americans, a text in which she praises the "monotony" of middle-class life and lays out the sweeping proportions of her attraction to repetition, both linguistic and thematic (265).

 CONTEXT: William Carlos Williams on The Work of Gertrude Stein
Stein simply erases their stories, turns them off and does without them, their logic (founded merely on the limits of the perceptions) which is supposed to transcend the words, along with them.
There remains to be explained the bewildering volume of what Miss Stein has written, the quantity of her work, its very apparent repetitiousness, its iteration, what I prefer to call its extension, the final clue to her meaning.
But for Stein to tell a story of that sort, even with the utmost genius, was not enough under the conditions in which we live, since by the very nature of its composition such a story does violence to the larger scene which would be portrayed.
