Baker, Mary Ann

American, 1831–1921. She was orphaned at an early age when her parents died of tuberculosis, and she later lost a brother to the same disease. At the invitation of her Baptist minister, the Reverend H. R. Palmer of Chicago, she wrote “Master, the Tempest Is Raging.” In later years she became an enthusiastic worker for the Women’s Christian Temperance Union.
