Helen Elswyth Thane Ricker Beebe (1900 – 1984) was an American romance novelist. Born in Burlington, Iowa, she was the daughter of a local teacher and high school principal. The family moved to New York City in 1918, and "Helen Ricker" changed her name to "Elswyth Thane". She began working as a freelance writer in the '20s, and became a newspaper writer and a Hollywood screenwriter. Her first novel, "Riders of the Wind," was published in 1926. Her novel "The Tudor Wench," about Elizabeth I of England, was made into a play.
