Olive Tilford Dargan
Olive Tilford Dargan (1869–1968) was an American writer, poet, and playwright known for her works that often explored social justice and women's rights. Born in Kentucky, she wrote both under her own name and the pseudonym Fielding Burke. Her novels, such as "Call Home the Heart" (1932) and "A Stone Came Rolling," focused on labor struggles in the American South and the experiences of working-class women. Dargan's contributions to literature were also recognized through her poetry collections and plays, blending themes of nature, politics, and human endurance.
