| Bio | Margaret Hume, a former librarian at Concordia University in Montreal, received her education from the universities of New Brunswick and McGill. Born in Halifax, Nova Scotia, she spent most of her early growing-up years in Moncton, New Brunswick, and was an adoring young fan of Mary Grannan's "Maggie Muggins" CBC broadcasts as well as Grannan's books. This interest in Mary Grannan led Margaret to write Grannan's biography. Margaret is an active member of Canadian Authors Association and has previously held the positions of national co-chair and past chair. |
