Marilyn Anne Campbell is a Canadian writer and semi-professional nature nerd who lives with her human and non-human family near the shores of Lake Ontario.

Her short stage plays have been performed in Halifax, Hamilton, Winnipeg, Calgary, Chicago, New York, Aberdeen (South Dakota, not Scotland) and Leeds, England. Her Remembrance Day themed script "Failing Hands" was one of three winners of the inaugural National TYA Playwriting Competition held by Storybook Theatre in Calgary (2016). She has been awarded playwriting grants from the Ontario Arts Council's Recommender Grants for Theatre Creators program and from the Toronto Arts Council.

Along with writing for the stage, Marilyn writes short fiction, silly poetry, and comics. She wrote "The Goosefighter" for the Toronto Comics anthology 'Osgoode As Gold' and has another story in an anthology in the works (to be announced soon). Two of her poems for children were included in the Emma Press (UK) anthology 'Dragons of the Prime: Poems About Dinosaurs.'

Nature and animals often feature prominently in Marilyn's writing and she is currently working towards the Humane Education Practitioner Certificate from the University of Denver's Institute for Human-Animal Connection.
