Jane Sinnett (née Fry; 8 March 1804 – 14 November 1870)[1] was a British translator, author, and critic.[2] Although less familiar than other 19th-century women writers, she was one among a growing group of female "travellers, translators and journalists during a period when women became increasingly robust participants in the publishing industry."[3][2]
