Vera Manuel (March 20, 1948– January 22, 2010) was a Secwepemc-Ktunaxa playwright, poet, writer, healer and educator. She was the daughter of cultural leader Marceline Paul and political leader George Manuel, Sr. Manuel grew up on the Neskonlith reserve in the interior of British Columbia, and lived for many years in Vancouver, Canada, where she died in January 2010, aged 61. She worked in diverse communities across North America. She wrote and produced numerous Native American drama plays about cultural oppression and genocide,as an independent artist and through Storytellers Theatre, including The Strength of Indian Women and Every Warrior's Song. Her poetry and short stories were published in journals and anthologies, and—like her plays—performed at a variety of venues across Canada and the US.
