Alice Elinor Lambert (January 8, 1886 - February 19, 1981) was an American romance writer. In the 1930s, she self-published with Vanguard Press at least three romance novels: Hospital Nocturne, Women Are Like That, and Lost Fragrance, all later re-published by Dell Romance.
In 1904, she enjoyed a brief summer romance with landscape painter Tom Thomson. Thomas John Thomson (August 5, 1877 – July 8, 1917), also known as Tom Thomson, was an influential Canadian artist of the early 20th century. He directly influenced a group of Canadian painters that would come to be known as the Group of Seven, and though he died before they formally formed, and is sometimes incorrectly credited as being a member of the group itself. Thomson disappeared during a canoeing trip on Canoe Lake in Algonquin Park on July 8, 1917 and his body was discovered in the lake eight days later. The official cause of death was accidental drowning, but there are still questions about how he actually died.
Lambert married Joseph Ransburg in 1912. They had two daughters: Victoria (born 1914) and Josephine (born 1916). Lambert separated from Ransburg in the 1920s, moved to San Francisco and became an advice columnist for the San Francisco Examiner. According to the 1930 U.S. Census, she was again living with Ransburg. In 1931, she again separated, moving to New York. She returned to Seattle the following year and divorced Ransburg.
