    Biographical history

    Olive Langley (nee Reinhardt) was born in 1891 in Montreal. She graduated from McGill University in 1913, and in 1914, married Gordon R. Langley of Peterborough. When the University Women's Club of Peterborough was formed in 1937, Langley became a Charter Member and was President of the Club from 1946-1947. Upon her death in 1962, the Club named its annual prize in Langley's honour - the Olive Langley Prize. This prize was awarded annually to the grade 13 female student with the highest standing in a Peterborough area high school. Langley's interests included nature study, painting, literature, badminton, and tennis. She is the author of a book of poetry and the novel, The Old Sentinel.
