Sylvia Constance Ashton-Warner MBE (17 December 1908 28 April 1984) was a New Zealand writer, poet and educator. She spent many years teaching Maori children, using stimulating and often pioneering techniques which she wrote about in her 1963 treatise Teacher and in the various volumes of her autobiography. Her success derived from a commitment to "releasing the native imagery and using it for working material" and her belief that communication must produce a mutual response in order to effect a lasting change. As a novelist, she produced several works mostly centred on strong female characters. Her novel Spinster (1958) was made into the 1961 film Two Loves (also known as The Spinster) starring Shirley MacLaine. She was appointed a Member of the Order of the British Empire, for services to education and literature, in the 1982 Queen's Birthday Honours.

Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 296 pages. dj faded.Traces the life of the controversial New Zealand educator and novelist, and attempts to depict her complex personality Editorial Reviews From Publishers Weekly Teacher-n ovelist Ashton-Warner is revealed in this rich, lively biography as a contradictory figure who, early on, was never one to let fac ts cloud the drama of a good story. Although her unorthodox appro ach to teaching Maori children--formulated on the concept of key vocabulary based on native imagery--won her international fame as an innovator, Ashton-Warner frequently expressed her dislike of teaching. This biography, the first book by New Zealand freelance r Wood, supplies factual evidence as to the parallels between Ash ton-Warner's ambivalence in areas of her own life and that of the heroines of her novels, especially the bestseller Spinster. We'r e shown that life on her own terms was a condition set down by As hton-Warner. She was born in 1906 into an eccentric New Zealand f amily; she combined a nontraditional marriage with an erratic car eer as teacher-writer. She thrived on love-hate relationships, wa s a deeply restless woman, flirtatious even in old age, alcoholic and, yet, as her biographer demonstrates, strangely charismatic. Photos.
