Timeline
As a senior at Vassar College, Gibbs was the editor of Vassar Poetry, 1930, along with three other seniors who made selections from poems submitted by Vassar students.
Gibbs began submitting fiction to The New Yorker in 1931 and for the next twenty-three years she continued supplying the magazine with fiction as well as contributions to its weekly sections, like Onward & Upward, The Talk of the Town, Comment and reviews for books as well as theater shows.
Her more notable contributions to the magazine are:
In 1932, Gibbs went on to publish her first novel, Murder Between Drinks, a mystery fiction.
Her short story The Test was first published in The New Yorker, issue dated June 15, 1940.
The story revolves around the main character Marian, a young African-American woman on her second attempt to obtain a driver's license.
The story begins with Marian and her employer, Mrs Ericson, driving to the test.
Although she has a college degree, Marian could only secure a job working as a nanny to a white family.
Marian has already failed her first attempt to get a driver's license due to the racially charged unfairness of the first inspector.
On her second try, she again is subjected to a discouraging attitude of an ignorant inspector, leading her to shout out, "Damn you!"
before immediately being failed despite her actual driving ability.
The story concerns questions of racial and sexual discrimination and is Gibbs' most often anthologized story, especially amongst other stories that share in themes of discrimination, as in Primer for White Folks where it appears alongside stories by W. E. B. Du Bois, Langston Hughes, Richard Wright and many others.
Gibbs published again in 1944, along with five other writers, in New York Murders.
