Gertrude Chandler Warner: Hi, this is Wendy McClure. I'm the editor for Gertrude Chandler Warner's books. Gertrude passed away in 1979 when she was 89 years old, but pronounced her name Gertrude Chandler Warner. To explain her two last names, she was descended from two very old Connecticut families whose roots could be traced back to colonial times. Her mother's ancestors were the Chandlers, and her father came from the Warners. So, there's a lot of history in her name, Gertrude Chandler Warner.
