"The particular Myra whom this story concerns will have to have a paragraph of history. I will get it over with as swiftly as possible."
-F. Scott Fitzgerald, Myra Meets His Family (1920)
Myra Meets His Family (1920) by F. Scott Fitzgerald is one of the author's first stories published in the Saturday Evening Post and features Myra Harper, a twenty-something former debutante who feels as if she must find a man without moving into romance. Her desire to find a wealthy husband involves Knowleton Whitney and what transpires is the plotline Fitzgerald writes so expertly. The story is also the basis for the film The Husband Hunter (1920), released that same year. Written at the beginning of Fitzgerald's career, this is a tale for those intrigued by the author's early writing and The Jazz Age.
