Viola M. Gale (née Håkansson; 1917–2007) was a Swedish-born American poet and publisher, who worked in Oregon. She began writing poems and short stories that were published in minor magazines and reviews in the 1950s. Gale's first book was published in 1959, and released five more throughout her life. In 1974, she established the small printing house Prescott Street Press in Portland to promote unknown authors and produce well-designed affordable books. One of Gale's works was selected by the Oregon Cultural Heritage Commission as one of 100 Oregon books from 1800 to 2000 "best representing the state's literary heritage" in 2003.
