Anne Shannon Monroe (October 29, 1873 – October 18, 1942) was a prolific American author. Born in Yakima, Washington,〔Jean M. Ward, Elaine A. Maveety, ''Pacific Northwest Women, 1815-1925'' (OSU Press, 1995)〕 she was the daughter of William A. Monroe, M.D., and great-granddaughter of George Shannon of the Lewis and Clark Expedition.〔'Oregon Historical Quarterly', 1942, p. 43:374〕 She wrote popular press articles on a wide variety of subjects, including an early portrayal of a (fictional) female business tycoon, a notable 1904 study of Mary MacLane's literary inspiration (which Monroe found in Sei Shonagon's work), and Oregon rancher William "Bill" Hanley. Many of her books are based on her childhood experiences growing up in the semi-arid, cold ranch-lands of eastern Washington state. ==Works== *(Eugene Norton: ''A Tale from the Sagebrush Land'' (1900) ) *(''Making of a Business Woman'' (1912) ) *(''Happy Valley - A Story of Oregon'' (1916) ) * ''Behind the Ranges'' (Doubleday, 1925) * ''Singing in the Rain: Essays for Thoughtful People'' (1926) * ''The world I saw'' (1928) * ''The hearth of happiness'' (1929) * ''Feelin' fine!''
