Autorenporträt
Marian Keith, born Mary Esther Miller in Rugby, Oro Township, Simcoe, Ontario, was a Canadian novelist and writer. She began writing in 1905 and contributed a column to Teacher s Monthly before working on the editorial staff of the Presbyterian Church's Sunday School Publications. In 1906, when attempting to publish her first novel, she discovered that her own name was already being used by another author (as Esther Miller), so she chose the pen name Marian Keith. In 1909, she married Donald MacGregor, one of the founding members of the United Church of Canada. Together, they moved several times across central Ontario to support her husband's ministerial career, spending a fair amount of time in London. While in London, she founded a Sunday school for girls called the Marian Keith Club. In 1924, Keith wrote A Gentleman Adventurer, based on the life of a neighbour. Many of her novels reflect her belief in the connection between religious thought and social conscience, focusing on improving life for the poor and uneducated. Keith s legacy lies in her exploration of faith, social issues, and rural life in Canada.
