Caroline "Danske" Dandridge, nee Bedinger (1854-1914), American poet, historian and garden writer was born in Copenhagen, Denmark, to Caroline Lawrence Bedinger and her husband, Henry Bedinger III, the United States' first ambassador to Denmark. She was brought back to the U. S. in 1857, living in Flushing, New York and later in Shepherdstown, Virginia. As a child, she used to write poetry and aspired to be a writer, but put her writing aside for some years. She began writing poetry again in 1883 and had her first poem published in Godey's Lady's Book in 1885. She renamed the family home "Rose Brake" at about the same time. In 1888, Danske's first book of poems, Joy and Other Poems, was published by G. P. Putnam's Sons. In the late 1890's, she turned to writing garden articles for Garden and Forest among other publications, and after that devoted her time to writing works of history. She died at home in Shepherdstown, West Virginia in 1914.
