Angeline Hango
Angéline Hango (February 2, 1905 – November 9, 1995) was a Canadian writer, who won the Stephen Leacock Award in 1949 for her sole published book, ''Truthfully Yours''.〔W. H. New, ''Encyclopedia of Literature in Canada''. University of Toronto Press, 2002. ISBN 0802007619. p. 75.〕
Born Marie-Rose Angéline Roy in Arvida, Quebec,〔Canada’s Early Women Writers (CEWW), Simon Fraser University.〕 she married John Raymond Hango in 1932.〔 She distributed ''Truthfully Yours'' under the pseudonym Angéline Bleuets, winning the Oxford-Crowell Award for unpublished manuscripts.〔"Delightful Autobiography". ''Winnipeg Tribune'', July 24, 1948.〕 The prize package consisted of $500 and the manuscript's publication by Oxford Press; the book was ultimately published under her real married name in 1948, and won the Stephen Leacock Award the following year.〔"Win Governor General's Awards in Annual Literary Contest". ''Ottawa Journal'', June 11, 1949.〕 The book was a ''roman à clef'' about her childhood in the Saguenay—Lac-Saint-Jean region.〔 In a 1980 interview with the ''Ottawa Citizen'', Hango stated that she hadn't even considered the book to be funny at all when it won the Leacock Award, though she admitted that she more easily saw the humor in it when rereading it later in life.〔"Optimism helps writers". ''Ottawa Citizen'', January 21, 1970.〕
After John Hango's death, she remarried to Norris "Cubby" Burke, a former radio operator in the Royal Canadian Air Force.〔("A wonderful story from my Orangeville gig" ). Terry Fallis, February 12, 2013.〕
Although she never published another book, Hango had completed a draft manuscript, entitled ''Moroccan Diary'', the story of her travels in Morocco in a camper, at the time of her death from a stroke in 1995.〔Bourgeois-Doyle, Dick. ''What’s So Funny?: Lessons from Canada’s Leacock Medal for Humour Writing''. General Store Publishing House, 2015. ISBN 978-1-77123-342-2. p.18.〕
