Theodora Roosevelt Keogh O'Toole Rauchfuss (June 30, 1919 – January 5, 2008) was an American novelist writing under her first married name, Theodora Keogh, in the 1950s and 1960s.
She was a member of the Roosevelt family, born in New York City. She worked as a professional dancer in Canada and South America, but retired from this career in 1945. She wrote a total of 9 novels, which were published between 1950 and 1962. Her characters' personalities tended to have hidden dark sides. She explored gay and lesbian themes in her novels. She is considered an early writer of lesbian pulp fiction. Her works were largely forgotten between the 1960s and the early 2000s, when they were republished and "rediscovered".
During her writing career, Keogh lived in Paris. She moved to Rome in the 1960s, and settled in North Carolina in the 1970s. She spent the rest of her life as a resident of Caldwell County, North Carolina. Following the death of her third and last husband in 1989, she lived alone in a house within the woods.

1951
Street Music is the story of Linnet Mitchell, a young and gently-bred New York girl, who marries Claude Mitan and goes to live with him in his native Paris. At first Linnet is enchanted by her new surroundings: the color and movement in the streets and cafes and in the small hotels that crowd the quarter combine to delight and bewilder the naive young wife. But soon her delight becomes tainted; at first, by a vague unease, gradually increasing almost to fear when she realizes that, under the surface of the scene, are forces which have a powerful and estranging effect on her husband.
