Autorenporträt

Born in 1853, ALICE JONES, daughter of a prominent Halifax family, began her writing career with magazine articles and short stories while her father was lieutenant governor of the province. The success of her first novel and her second two years later launched her career as a leading Canadian writer of international bestsellers at the turn of the 20th century. MORA DIANNE O'NEILL is curator of historical prints and drawings at the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia. She has presented exhibitions at the gallery focusing on individual artists, such as William Eagar, Robert Petley, Alan Syliboy, and on themes, most notably a show titled At the Great Harbour: 250 Years on the Halifax Waterfront. She has written many catalogues and articles on Canadian artists.
