Mrs. Henry Wood (17 January 1814 - February 10, 1887) was an English author. She is well known for her 1861 novel East Lynne. Many of her works sold well abroad and were extensively read in the United States. She was more well-known in Australia than Charles Dickens at the time. Ellen Price was born in Worcester in 1814.
