My new article in the Canadian Encyclopedia is about Hilda Marion Neatby.

Neatby was the first woman to lead a university history department in Canada and the first female president of the Canadian Historical Association (CHA). She was also the only woman to serve on the Massey Commission. In 1967, she was chosen as Saskatchewan’s Woman of the Century and became a Companion of the Order of Canada. Since 1982, the CHA has awarded the Hilda Neatby Prize for women’s history.
