Mary Virginia Terhune, známa pod pseudonymom Marion Harland, bola americká autorka, ktorá napísala rozsiahle dielo vrátane románov, poviedok, cestopisných kníh, biografií a historických prác. Napriek svojej obrovskej produkcii, starostlivosti o domácnosť a šesť detí, jej tvorba často čelila nepochopeniu a bola kritikou prehliadaná. Terhune sa odmietavo stavala k vtedajšiemu rodiacemu sa feminizmu, čím sa paradoxne vzďaľovala ideálom, ktoré často obhajovala vo svojich dielach. Jej odkaz spočíva v bohatom a rozmanitom literárnom dedičstve, napriek tomu, že bola často prehliadaná.
