Nellie Letitia Mooney McClung

Nellie L. McClung (1873–1951) was a Canadian author, suffragist, and politician. She worked as a teacher in Manitoba before turning to writing and activism, and she served as a member of the Legislative Assembly of Alberta from 1921 to 1926. Her novel Sowing Seeds in Danny (1908), drawn from her experiences in rural Manitoba, has remained her most widely read work.
