Biography

Gordon was born in England in 1885. On all of her screenplays, she collaborated with fellow writer Ada McQuillan. Under her "G.G. Pendarves" name, Gordon was known for her short stories on the occult and ghosts, which were published in the pulp magazine Weird Tales. Gordon also wrote adventure fiction about the exploits of Westerners in North Africa; these were published in the pulp magazines Oriental Stories and The Magic Carpet Magazine.
Gordon died in late 1938, in The Wirral, Cheshire. In the December 1938 issue of Weird Tales, editor Farnsworth Wright published an obituary for her, revealing that "G. G. Pendarves" had been Gordon's pseudonym.
