Margaret Anderson (American, 1886 - 1973) and Jane Heap (American, 1883 - 1964) were partners in business and life, and in 1916 founded The Little Review, an influential literary magazine. They met in Chicago and later moved to New York, working with Ezra Pound, who served as their European editor. The Little Review published works by diverse authors, such as Gertrude Stein, Sherwood Anderson, T.S Eliot, William Carlos Williams, Ernest Hemingway, Amy Lowell, and Mina Loy. In 1918, Anderson and Heap began the first U.S. serialization of James Joyce’s Ulysses. The post office seized several issues and refused to distribute it due to its ‘obscene’ content; the couple was later arrested at the instigation of a “vice” crusader. They were found guilty in 1921 on indecency charges and were each fined $50 in an internationally publicized trial. They moved to Paris in the 1920s and were the subject of several Man Ray portraits during the subsequent decade.
