Marion A.
McBride (1850-1909; also spelled MacBride) was an American journalist and clubwoman.
She founded several women's press associations, most notably the New England Woman's Press Association.
She wrote and lectured on domestic science, and was active in charitable causes and local politics.
It was largely due to McBride's activism that the state of Massachusetts began hiring matrons for city police stations and built a separate facility for female inmates in Boston.
