Biographies and Memoirs

As the name suggests, the focus of this collection is to feature the life and work of prominent Anglophone and Francophone Canadians whose distinctive contributions have marked our collective society and history.

In chronicling the lives of these leading figures, each title will also explore their life’s work and the era in which they were active. Combining scholarship with an accessible voice, the Biographies and Memoirs collection is contributing to building an archive of Canadian achievements in culture, science and beyond.
