Penny Petrone (1925-2005) was an Italian-Canadian teacher, author, researcher, and world traveller, who taught at Lakehead University's Faculty of Education. She made significant achievements in the field of Canadian literature, especially in researching and anthologizing Indigenous Canadian literature. In later years she also engaged in works of memoir, as well as philanthropy.
