Mary Ann Harriet Margaret Hooper (bapt. 24 November 1829 – 8 January 1904) was an English writer known particularly for her cookbooks, besides novels and children's books. In the 1860s and 1870s, she started publishing her own cookbooks, including Papers on Cookery and Handbook for the Breakfast Table. She was invited to teach cooking classes at the Crystal Palace School of Arts, Science and Literature where eventually she became a professor of domestic economy. (wikipedia.com)
