Mary M.‏ (Mary Mason) Wright

Born in 1870, Mary M. Wright is identified in library records as Mary Mason Wright. She wrote practical household and cookery books in the 1910s and early 1920s, with her work published by The Penn Publishing Company.

Her known books include Candy-Making at Home (1915), Preserving and Pickling (1917), and Hospitality: Recipes and Entertainment Hints for All Occasions (1922). Across these titles, she focused on clear, usable advice for everyday cooks, covering everything from homemade sweets to preserves, menus, and entertaining.

Little biographical detail appears to be widely documented online beyond her authorship and birth year, but her surviving books suggest a writer deeply interested in making domestic skills approachable and appealing for home readers.
