Sara Jeannette Duncan

Sara Jeannette Duncan (1861-1922), born in Brantford, Ontario, the daughter of a dry-goods merchant, went through teacher training college, then left teaching for journalism and became one of the first professional women in the trade in Canada: the Toronto Globe, under the byline Garth Grafton, the Washington Post, then the Montreal Star, for which she was the parliamentary correspondent in Ottawa. Leaving in 1888 on a round-the-world reporting trip, she married a British civil servant in 1890 and spent the rest of her life between Calcutta, Simla and England, where she died. She published twenty-two books.
