Florida Pier Scott-Maxwell was born in Orange Park, Florida, on September 24, 1883. She had lessons at home until she was ten, briefly attended public school in Pittsburgh, then went back to private lessons, and finally gave it all up to go on the stage at sixteen. At twenty she abandonded that career and began another as a writer of short stories. In 1910 she married John Maxwell Scott-Maxwell and went to live in his native Scotland. In 1929 they divorced and she moved to London. Her major pursuits were working for women's suffrage, writing plays, and tending her flowers and four children. In 1933 she began training for still another career as an analytical psychologist, studying under Carl Jung, later practicing in both Scotland and England.
