- Kate Roberts was born in a quarrying village in Wales, where her father worked. She graduated from the University College of North Wales, Bangor and became a Welsh teacher at schools in south Wales. In 1928, she married Morris T. Williams, with whom she purchased the publishing house Gwasg Gee, which she ran after his death for a further 10 years. She became a prominent Welsh nationalist and a member of the political party Plaid Cymru, contributing regularly to its monthly newspaper as well as to Gwasg Gee's Welsh-language weekly Y Faner (The Banner). She began writing short stories and novels after World War I, many of them featuring the region where she was born. Her first published collection was O Gors Y Bryniau (From the Marsh Hills) in 1925. She also produced works for and about children and her autobiography, Y Lôn Wen (The White Lane, 1960). She's now considered one of the most important Welsh-language writers of the 20th century.
