St. Clair was born in Hutchinson, Kansas. Her father, US Representative George A. Neeley, died when Margaret was seven, but left her mother well provided for. With no siblings, Margaret recalled her childhood as \"rather a lonely and bookish one.\" When she was seventeen, she and her mother moved to California. In 1932, after graduating from the University of California, Berkeley, she married writer Eric St. Clair. In 1934 she earned a Master of Arts in Greek Classics. The St. Clairs lived in a hilltop house with a panoramic view in what is now El Sobrante, California, where Margaret gardened and bred and sold dachshund puppies. In her rare autobiographical writings, St. Clair revealed few details of her personal life, but interviews with some who knew her indicate that she and her husband were well-traveled (including some visits to nudist colonies), were childless by choice, and in 1966 were initiated into Wicca by Raymond Buckland, taking the Craft names Froniga and Weyland. Eric St. Clair worked variously as a statistician, social worker, horticulturist, shopfitter, and a laboratory assistant in the University of California at Berkeley Physics Department; he also published numerous short stories and magazine articles and was \"perhaps the leading American writer of children's stories about bears, having sold close to 100 of them.\" The St. Clairs eventually moved from El Sobrante to a house on the coast near Point Arena, \"where every window had an ocean view.\" Margaret survived her husband by several years. A lifelong supporter of the American Friends Service Committee, she spent her final years at Friends House in Santa Rosa, California. She died in 1995."},{"label":"Search SCL Digital Archives for this Author","value":["St. Clair, Margaret, 1911-1995"]},{"label":"Search Author or Book in Library Catalog","value":"Search for works by Margaret St. Clair in the <a href=\"https://find.sonomalibrary.org/client/en_US/default/search/results?qu=%22St+Clair%2C+Margaret%22&te=&rt=false%7C%7C%7CAuthor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">library catalog</a>"},{"label":"Search Author in Open Library","value":"Search for works by Margaret St. Clair in <a href=\"https://openlibrary.org/search/authors?q=St+Clair+Margaret\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Open Library</a>"},{"label":"Author's Place(s) of Residence","value":["Santa Rosa"]},{"label":"Sort Title","value":"Margaret St. Clair (1911-1995)"},{"label":"Significant Title","value":"The Best of Margaret St. Clair"},{"label":"Digital Archives Identifier","value":"margaret_st_clair"},{"label":"Digital Archives Collection Name(s)","value":["Sonoma County Local Authors"]},{"label":"Date Added","value":"2016/10/09"},{"label":"Filename","value":"margaret_st_clair.jpg"},{"label":"Title","value":"Margaret St. Clair (1911-1995)"},{"label":"Item Type","value":["Text"]},{"label":"Item Format or Genre","value":["Biography files","Bibliographies","Portraits","Photographs"]},{"label":"Search SC Local Arts for this Author or Artist","value":"<a href=\"https://digital.sonomalibrary.org/documents?filter_363=margaret_st_clair&applyState=true\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Margaret St. Clair (1911-1995)</a>"},{"label":"Collection(s)","value":["Sonoma County Local Authors"]},{"label":"Author Name (Controlled)","value":["Margaret St. Clair (1911-1995)"]}],"description":"Margaret St. Clair (1911-1995)","sequences":[{"@type":"sc:Sequence","canvases":[{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/ced5fe0f-5cc8-4e9c-bdcf-f57ad8004095/canvas/_1","@type":"sc:Canvas","label":"Margaret St. Clair (1911-1995)","height":450,"width":450,"images":[{"@type":"oa:Annotation","motivation":"sc:painting","resource":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/ced5fe0f-5cc8-4e9c-bdcf-f57ad8004095/full/full/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","format":"image/jpeg","service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/ced5fe0f-5cc8-4e9c-bdcf-f57ad8004095","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json","tiles":[{"width":512,"scaleFactors":[1]}]},"height":450,"width":450},"on":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/ced5fe0f-5cc8-4e9c-bdcf-f57ad8004095/canvas/_1","metadata":[]}],"thumbnail":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/ced5fe0f-5cc8-4e9c-bdcf-f57ad8004095/full/500,500/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","height":500,"width":500}}]}],"thumbnail":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/ced5fe0f-5cc8-4e9c-bdcf-f57ad8004095/full/500,500/0/default.jpg","logo":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/logo"}
