Biography of the creator of "Anne of Green Gables." Like Anne Shirley, Lucy Maud Montgomery (1874-1942) had an early life full of loneliness and struggle; however, she had a secret dream: to become a writer. Maud was not only a woman of stormy moods and unshakable ambition but also an individual ahead of her time. Her journals record several courtships, one marriage, and one earthy love affair.
