Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox writer Anita Daher is an author, screenwriter, producer, show host and actor based in Winnipeg, Manitoba.[1] She has worked in book publishing since 1995 and has published in print, audio and e-book format in Canada, the United States, and Europe. She is also an actor on stage and screen. In 2020, she began to produce and host an author interview series called Made in Manitoba: Stories from Home airing on Shaw Winnipeg's community access channel, as well as the YouTube Channel, Made in Manitoba Book TV.
Daher was born in Summerside, Prince Edward Island, where she spent her childhood and the first two decades of her adult years moving every few years from one part of the country to the next. This wandering may have influenced her writing style. She has become known for bringing a strong sense of place into her stories. She feels that what she really writes about is "connection".
Daher sat as Chair of the Writers' Union of Canada from 2019-2021, the first two-year term Chair in the Union's history.
