Has there ever been a writer as cool as Gertrude Stein? We doubt it. That's why we decided to put her on a t-shirt. Not only was she friends with people like Picasso and Hemingway, but she also wrote her own "gay" stream-of-consciousness fiction before it was popular to do so. Actually, stream-of-consciousness fiction has never been "popular", but we're going to ignore that fact.
If you want to know more about Gertrude Stein, you can go to our Gertrude Stein Squidoo lens where we talk about her life and accomplishments. For instance, did you know that she and Alice B. Toklas volunteered during World War I to drive supplies to hospitals in France? Also, she attended Johns Hopkins medical school for 3 and half years and almost became a doctor.
No, we can't think of anyone more deserving of being on a t-shirt. Stop by our Zazzle store and you'll also find totebags, mugs, postcards and more Gertrude Stein products. They make great gifts for the writer in your life.
