George Washington Cable was born on October 12, 1844 and died on January 31, 1925. He was a novelist noteworthy for the pragmatism of his interpretations of Creole life in his locale New Orleans, Louisiana. He has been referred to as "the most important southern artist working in the late 19th century, as well as the first modern southern writer." In his dealing with racism, mixed-race families and high breed, his literature has been believed to forestall that of William Faulkner. He also penned essays crucial of modern society. In line to aggression against him after two 1885 articles stimulating racial fairness and contradicting Jim Crow, George lived with his family to Northampton, Massachusetts. He settled there for the about 30 years, then went to Florida. George was born in New Orleans, Louisiana to George W. Cable, Sr., and Rebecca Boardman Cable. They were rich slaveholders who were members of the Presbyterian Church and New Orleans society, whose families had resided there after the Louisiana Purchase.

He then taught himself French. He joined the Confederate Army in the American Civil War, in which he participated to assist in the Southern cause.
