American screenwriter and short-story writer Sally Benson began her writing career submitting articles and film reviews for the New York Morning Telegraph. Prior to that she had been a bank teller. She also had stories published in The New Yorker, occasionally under the pen name Esther Evarts. Two of her short stories, "Junior Miss" and "Meet Me in St. Louis" were made into popular films. During the early 1940s Benson became a full-fledged screenwriter. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi LESS
