Paula Fox, Who Wrote Award-Winning Books For Adults And Children, Has Died At Age 93

Fox wrote for every age, and so, critics said, her adult work was often discounted. “Fox’s best-known novel for adults is ‘Desperate Characters’ (1970), about the disintegration of a marriage. It was made into a film of the same title, released the next year and starring Shirley MacLaine and Kenneth Mars.”
