Mavis Gallant

Mavis Gallant
Canadian short-story writer Mavis Gallant was born in Québec but spent most of her adult life in Paris, France. Many of her stories, written in English and usually published in the New Yorker, feature expatriates like herself. For much of her career she was better known in the United States than in Canada, but later she received wide recognition in her home country as well.
