Lucy Maud Montgomery
Lucy Maud Montgomery (November 30, 1874 - April 24, 1942) was a Canadian author, best known for a series of novels beginning with Anne of Green Gables.
She was born at Clifton, Prince Edward Island. In 1911, after her marriage to the Rev. Ewen Macdonald, she moved to Leaskdale, Ontario, where she wrote close to a dozen books before the family moved to Norval, Ontario in 1926. She died in Toronto in 1942 and was buried at Cavendish, Prince Edward Island.
Her major collections are archived at the University of Guelph, while the Lucy Maud Montgomery Institute (http://www.upei.ca/~lmmi/) at the University of Prince Edward Island coordinates most of the research and conferences surrounding her work. Volume 5 of her journals has just been published by Oxford University Press, edited by Mary Rubio and Elizabeth Waterston.
