Ann Vickers is a 1933 novel by Sinclair Lewis. It was made into a 1933 drama film of the same name directed by John Cromwell, adapted by Jane Murfin, and starring Irene Dunne, Bruce Cabot, Walter Huston, and Conrad Nagel. The novel follows the heroine, Ann Vickers, from tomboy school girl in the late 19th century American Midwest, through college, and into her forties. It charts her postgraduate suffragist phase in the early 20th century. As a suffragist, she is imprisoned, and her experiences there lead her to become interested in social work and prison reform.
