Editing Edna Ferber (section)

=== Algonquin Round Table ===
Ferber was a member of the [[Algonquin Round Table]], a group of wits who met for lunch every day at the [[Algonquin Hotel]] in New York. Ferber and another member of the Round Table, [[Alexander Woollcott]], were long-time enemies, their antipathy lasting until Woollcott's death in 1943, although [[Howard Teichmann]] states in his biography of Woollcott that their feud was due to a misunderstanding. According to Teichmann, Ferber once described Woollcott as "a New Jersey [[Nero]] who has mistaken his [[pinafore]] for a [[toga]]".

Ferber collaborated with Round Table member [[George S. Kaufman]] on several plays presented on Broadway: ''Minick'' (1924), ''[[The Royal Family (play)|The Royal Family]]'' (1927), ''[[Dinner at Eight (play)|Dinner At Eight]]'' (1932), ''[[The Land Is Bright]]'' (1941), ''[[Stage Door (play)|Stage Door]]'' (1936), and ''Bravo!'' (1948).<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.bard.org/study-guides/about-the-playwright-the-royal-family|title=About the Playwright: The Royal Family – The Kaufman-Ferber Partnership|work=Utah Shakespeare Festival|publisher=The Professional Theater at Southern Utah University|access-date=February 8, 2017}}</ref>
