'I think that was the central trauma of Dare's life, losing both her father and her brother as a young child, and was something that stayed with her throughout her life,' Nathan says. Her parents were divorced when Wright was three years old, resulting in her separation from her older brother. Wright's troubled childhood was reflected in the Lonely Doll books. Dare and her mother Edie traveled to sunny islands throughout the world. Nathan discusses Dare's life with NPR's Steve Inskeep. The man dearest to her, whom Dare called her only true love, returned that love and admiration with courtly affection lasting more than sixty years. Nathan has written The Secret Life of the Lonely Doll, a biography of the late author and photographer Dare Wright, who created a series of popular children's books that scores of girls grew up with from the 1950s to the 1980s.

The children's title featured photos of a doll named Edith and stuffed bears who looked so authentic that Nathan believed Edith was a real girl.

When she was growing up, author Jean Nathan learned to read with a book called The Lonely Doll.
