From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Anne Hébert (August 1, 1916 - January 22, 2000) was a Canadian author and poet.

Anne Hébert was born in Sainte-Catherine-de-Fossambault, Quebec. Encouraged by her father, she began writing poetry and stories while still quite young. She was also the cousin of Hector de Saint-Denys Garneau, and his death in 1943 affected her so much that it changed her way of writing for the rest of her life. In 1954, she moved to Paris but continued to return to Quebec, which is the inspiration for much of her work. She died of bone cancer in Montreal, Quebec at the age of 83.

In 1968, she was made a Companion of the Order of Canada. In 1985, she was made an Officer of the National Order of Quebec.

Originally written in French, her work has been translated into English, Spanish, Italian, German and Japanese.
