Peggy Dymond Leavey
Peggy Dymond Leavey is a non-fiction and fiction published author.
Margaret Louise (Peggy) Dymond was born in Toronto, Ontario, the second in a family of five children.
Peggy has enjoyed writing all her life. Her earliest pieces appeared regularly on the back page of “Canadian Girl” in the 1950s. It was in Trenton, Ontario that Peggy was finally able to put down roots.
As well as being the bookkeeper for her husband’s business, Peggy worked for nearly 17 years as a part time librarian for the County of Prince Edward Public Library. After her children were all in school, Peggy started writing freelance for the newspaper in Trenton. She has also had published poems, stories and articles for both adults and children and has helped research and write three books of local history. Her own book of non-fiction, “The Movie Years,” the story of Trenton’s early film industry was published by Mika Publishing in 1989.
