Iona McGregor (1929 – 14 March 2021) was a Scottish author and teacher best known for her written work and her contributions to gay rights activism, especially from the 1970's onwards. She worked with the Scottish Minorities Group in Glasgow (and later in Edinburgh) to help create safe social spaces for women, and to develop the Edinburgh Befriending Service for people who were members of the LGBT community (which later became the Lothian Gay and Lesbian Switchboard). In later life, she was an active member of Edinburgh U3A. She was a full time teacher, and so had to keep her activism work and personal life a secret in order to avoid losing her job. She was a member of the Scottish PEN and wrote novels and non-fiction, especially about Scottish history.
