Mary MacLane
Mary MacLane (May 1, 1881 — ''c''. 6 August 1929) was a controversial Canadian-born American writer whose frank memoirs helped usher in the confessional style of autobiographical writing.〔''The Chicagoan,'' obituary editorial, August 1929. Quoted in ''Tender Darkness'', Introduction.〕 MacLane was known as the "Wild Woman of Butte".〔Watson, Julia Dr. (2002). "Introduction", ''The Story of Mary MacLane''. ISBN 1-931832-19-6.〕
MacLane was a very popular author for her time,〔''New York Times'' obituary article, 9 August 1929〕 scandalizing the populace with her shocking bestselling first memoir and to a lesser extent her two following books. She was considered wild and uncontrolled, a reputation she nurtured, and was openly bisexual as well as a vocal feminist. In her writings, she compared herself to another frank young memoirist, Marie Bashkirtseff, who died a few years after MacLane was born,〔Story of Mary MacLane (1902 and 1911), first entry.〕 and H. L. Mencken called her "the Butte Bashkirtseff."〔
== Early life and family ==
MacLane was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada in 1881,〔 but her family moved to the Red River area of Minnesota, settling in Fergus Falls, which her father helped develop. After his death in 1889, her mother remarried a family friend and lawyer, H. Gysbert Klenze. Soon after, the family moved to Montana, first settling in Great Falls and finally in Butte, where Klenze drained the family funds pursuing mining and other ventures. MacLane spent the remainder of her life in the United States. She began writing for her school paper in 1898.〔''Tender Darkness'', bibliography〕
