Edythe Mae Gordon (c. 1890-1980) was an African American writer of poetry and short stories during the Harlem Renaissance. Her work was primarily published in the Saturday Evening Quill, a Boston based publication founded by her husband and fellow Harlem Renaissance figure Eugene Gordon. Little is known about her both before or after her marriage to Gordon, but her most famous work is her 1928 short story “Subversion” which was listed among the year’s distinguished stories by the O Henry Award prize committee.
