Mary Lovett Cameron (1848 – 20 April 1930) was a British artist and writer of fiction and travel books, based in Cornwall.
Cameron was born in Wavertree, Lancashire, the daughter of Charles Francis Lovett Cameron and Julia Buckley Cameron. Her father was born in Ireland.[1]
Cameron lived in St Ives, Cornwall after 1891,[2] and spent time in Italy.[3] In 1898, she was one of the artists who signed the "Glanville letter", a call for less commercial development along the coast at St Ives.[4] Also in 1898, she was assaulted in her home by a young man; she escaped further harm by locking herself in a pantry, and calling out a window for help.[5] In 1918,[6] she was the first woman elected to the office of librarian of the St. Ives Arts Club.[2] She died on Easter in 1930, in her late seventies, at the Convent of St. Gildas in Langport, Somerset.[7]
