Washington Irving (1783-1859) is generally credited with being the father of the American short story and was the first American writer to achieve international renown. Elizabeth L. Bradley, the author of Knickerbocker: The Myth Behind New York, serves as literary consultant to Historic Hudson Valley. She also wrote the introduction and notes for the Penguin Classics edition of Irving's A History of New York.
