- Breve biografia
- Not much biographical information Mary Masters is known. Although some sources give her dates as 1706-1759, she may have been born as early as 1694 and died as late as 1771. She appears to have been a self-taught poet. According to Samuel Johnson's biographer James Boswell, Mary Masters was a friend of Johnson, who may have helped edit some of her verses. She is also linked with Edmund Cave, editor of The Gentleman’s Magazine. Her book Poems on Several Occasions (1733) was one of the first volumes of poems in English by a woman with her name appearing on the title page.
