The Financier (1912) is the first volume in Dreiser's Trilogy of Desire, which continued in The Titan (1914) and the posthumously published The Stoic (1947).  Though based on the life of Chicago financier C. T. Yerkes, Dreiser's novel is set in Philadelphia and follows the roller-coaster career of his unscrupulous character, Frank Algernon Cowperwood.

Though famed as a novelist, Dreiser had aspirations as a playwright. His dream was realized with The Hand of the Potter, a four-act tragedy published in 1918 and produced in 1921.  Dreiser's subject—the rape and murder of a twelve-year-old girl—was highly controversial. 

This collection of twelve narratives was published in 1919, though seven had seen magazine publication previously.  They are portraits of people Dreiser came across in his life who influenced him, ranging from his brother Paul, a noted songwriter, to a tough-as-nails railroad foreman on whose crew a youthful Dreiser had labored.
