Una Hunt
Una Hunt (born 1876) [1] (full married name Una Hunt Clarke Drage), daughter of prominent geologist Frank Wigglesworth Clarke (1847–1931), was an American author famed in her time for publishing Una Mary, an autobiographical reconstruction of the inner and outer world of her childhood. G. Stanley Hall, generally credited with discovering the concept of adolescence, considered her along with Marie Bashkirtseff and Mary MacLane to have exposed the world of female adolescent thought and emotion.
