Margaret L. Goldsmith

Margaret Leland Goldsmith (1894–1971) was an American journalist, historical novelist and translator who lived and worked primarily in England.

[1] Goldsmith spent some of her childhood in Germany, where she attended school and learned to speak German fluently.

[5] In 1926 she married Frederick Voigt, the Manchester Guardian's diplomatic correspondent in Berlin in the 1920s and 1930s.

Goldsmith was a friend of Katharine Burdekin, helping her over depression in 1938 by providing her with research notes on Marie Antoinette.

The outcome was a historical novel, Venus in Scorpio, co-authored by Goldsmith and Burdekin (as 'Murray Constantine').
