Biography
As an author for Harlequin Romance, Alex Stuart published 18 novels. Her debut novel, The Captain's Table was published in 1953. Her novel, Gay Cavalier got her into trouble with her Mills & Boon editors when she featured a secondary story line featuring a Catholic male and Protestant female who chose to marry. This so-called "mixed marriage" touched nerves in the United Kingdom.
She was also known as Vivian Stuart, Barbara Allen, Fiona Finlay, Robyn Stuart, V.A. Stuart, and William Stuart Long. She was born on 2 January 1914 in Rangoon (Burma), and her maiden real was Violet Vivian Finlay, but is well-know by her married name Stuart (though some references cite the name as Vivian Stuart Mann, Mann being the last name of her third husband, Cyril William Mann). She married third times during her lifetime, and had four children: Gillian Rushton, Jennifer Gooch, and the twins: Vary and Valerie Stuart. She passed away in August 1986 in York.
