Blanche Lamontagne-Beauregard
Blanche Lamontagne-Beauregard was a Canadian poet.
She was born in Les Escoumins, Québec, and attended various convent schools before taking classes around 1910 at the École d'enseignement secondaire pour les jeunes filles. She may have studied literature at the University of Montreal. Her first poetry collection, Visions gaspésiennes, received the Prix de la Société du parler français au Canada. After her marriage with lawyer Hector Beauregard in July 1920, she was able to devote herself to writing. She belongs to Québec's regionalist school of writing and drew largely upon the folklore of the Gaspé peninsula.
