Jane Hamilton Silcott

Jane (Hamilton) Silcott adopted her grandmother’s surname three years ago to avoid further confusion with all the other writers with her birth name. Except here, among friends, she now writes simply as Jane Silcott. Jane was managing editor of TCR from 1991 to 1995. Since, she has served on the board and has periodically worked in the office. Her writing has appeared in a variety of journals including The Malahat Review, Geist, and Utne. In 2005, Jane won 2nd prize in nonfiction in the CBC Literary Awards.
