Margaret Hill McCarter (May 2, 1860 – August 31, 1938) was an American teacher and novelist.〔
Born Margaret Hill near Carthage, Indiana to Quaker parents Thomas Thornbury Hill and Nancy (Davis), she was educated at public schools in Indiana then at the Quaker school Earlham College.〔 Margaret attended the State Normal School at Terre Haute, Indiana, studying Latin, English and history; earning an A.B. in 1884. She became the principal of the high school in Rensselaer, Indiana, then head of the English department at the Goshen, Indiana high school.〔 In 1888〔 she was hired to head the English department at Topeka High School in Topeka, Kansas,〔 remaining at that post for the next six years.〔
She married William Arthur Carter, a doctor, on June 5, 1890, and the couple had three children. In 1894 she founded Western Sorosis, a women's club. Margaret became a writer in 1901;〔 contributing articles for newspapers and magazines.〔 Her first novel, ''The cottonwood's story'' was published in 1903.〔 She became the best known and highest paid novelist in Kansas for her time.〔 Her novels were historical fiction tales about Kansas, and featured an "anti-Indian" theme.〔 She was a staunch Republican and was invited to speak at the 1920 Republican National Convention in Chicago,〔 becoming the first woman ever to do so.〔
