Constance Garnett

[JUDITH KORNBLATT]

Does anyone know of a source on the translator Constance Garnett? A colleague is writing a book on the British Museum's Reading Room and the early women writers, translators, and scholars who were associated with it, and it seems that our very own Garnett plays an important role. How did she learn Russian? Who did she translate first? Who was the publisher? Any leads are appreciated. Thank you.
