Katharine Lee Bates
![Sketch from ''[[A Woman of the Century]]''](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/57/Katherine_Lee_Bates.jpg)
Bates enjoyed close links with Wellesley College, Massachusetts, where she had graduated with a B.A., and later became a professor of English literature, helping to launch American literature as an academic speciality, and writing one of the first-ever college textbooks on it. She never married, possibly because she would have lost tenure if she had. Throughout her long career at Wellesley, she shared a house with her close friend and companion Katharine Coman. Some scholars have assumed that this was a lesbian relationship, considering some exchanges of letters sufficient proof, others believe their relationship may have been a platonic "Boston marriage" in the contemporary phrase.
