Anne Eliot Crompton (1930–2011)

Anne Eliot Crompton grew up in a college town in the 1940s, a time when women’s roles in myth were less acknowledged than today. When she married and moved to the country to raise children and animals, she realized how much "heavy lifting" had been done by women throughout human history. Part of her life’s work was to shine light on their immense contribution to the human story. Many of her works are interpretations of Arthurian legend.
