Frances "Scottie"
Scott (Fitzgerald)
Smith

Daughter of F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. - Scottie Fitzgerald Smith, the only child of author F. Scott Fitzgerald and his wife, Zelda, died of cancer Wednesday at her home here. She was 64.

Mrs. Smith, a child when her father earned literary fame in the 1920s and her parents symbolized the dashing lifestyle of the Jazz Age, was a writer whose career included an early stint with the New Yorker magazine.

Her father, whose novels include one of America's classics, "The Great Gatsby," died in Hollywood in 1940. Her mother, a Montgomery native and the daughter of an Alabama Supreme Court justice, died in a sanitarium fire in North Carolina in 1948.

The parents met during World War I while Fitzgerald was serving in the Army at Camp Sheridan in Montgomery County, Ala.
