Mary Hunter Austin

    Mary Hunter Austin fue una prolífica novelista, poeta, crítica y dramaturga, así como una temprana feminista, conservacionista y defensora de los derechos y la cultura de los nativos americanos y los hispanoamericanos. Como una de las primeras escritoras de la naturaleza del suroeste de Estados Unidos, su obra profundizó en la fauna, la flora y las gentes del paisaje agreste entre las montañas de Sierra Nevada y el desierto de Mojave. Su escritura estuvo profundamente arraigada en años de observación aguda y un compromiso apasionado por preservar las culturas y paisajes locales, lo que la distinguió como una voz única en la literatura estadounidense.
