Blanche Proctor Fisher

Blanche Proctor Fisher is a little-known American writer whose work survives mainly through early 20th-century printed plays for children. Two confirmed titles are Finding the Mayflowers!, published in 1918, and Santa Claus Gets His Wish: A Christmas Play in One Act for Young Children, published in 1921.

Both works were issued by Walter H. Baker & Co., a publisher well known for school and amateur performance scripts. From those editions, she appears to have written with classrooms and young performers in mind, using festive subjects and straightforward staging that would have been easy to present at holiday programs.

Very little reliable biographical information about her life was available in the sources reviewed, so much of her personal story remains unclear. What can be said with confidence is that her writing belongs to a tradition of practical, child-friendly dramatic literature made for teachers, community groups, and young readers.
