Anne Rivers Siddons, Author Of ‘Peachtree Road’ And Other Books Whose Subject Was The New South

PEOPLE Posted: September 15, 2019 4:00 am

Siddons was an advertising copywriter before her buddy Pat Conroy, author of Prince of Tides, urged her to write about Atlanta – which she did. But that wasn’t her only topic. “‘The South is hard on women,’ she told People, ‘partly because of the emphasis on looks and charm. No matter what I did, I always ended up with this hollow feeling. … That’s why I wrote: I am writing about the journey we take to find out what lives in that hole.” – The New York Times
