description: "Dale Spender was an Australian feminist scholar, teacher, writer and consultant. In 1983, Dale Spender was co-founder of and editorial advisor to Pandora Press, the first of the feminist imprints devoted solely to non-fiction, committed, according to The New York Times, to showing that \"women were the mothers of the novel and that any other version of its origin is but a myth of male creation\". She was the series editor of Penguin's Australian Women's Library from 1987. Spender's work is \"a major contribution to the recovery of women writers and theorists and to the documentation of the continuity of feminist activism and thought\"."
