Helen Norris Bell (June 22, 1916 – November 18, 2013)[1] was an American novelist and short story author who was Poet Laureate of Alabama from 1999 to 2003. Although most of Norris' work can be considered southern literature she also wrote many stories set in many places around the world, often preferring to write what she imagined to what she knew.[2]
