About Eva Kinney Griffith

  • Eva Kinney Griffith Miller (November 8, 1852 – 1918) was an American journalist, temperance activist, novelist, newspaper editor, and journal publisher. Griffith was lecturer and organizer of the Wisconsin Woman's Christian Temperance Union (WCTU) for several years.
  • Her illustrated lectures won her the name of "Wisconsin Chalk Talker." She wrote temperance lessons and poems for the Temperance Banner and the Union Signal.
  • She also published a temperance novel A Woman's Evangel (Chicago, 1892), having already put out a volume named Chalk Talk Handbook (1887), and True Ideal, a journal devoted to purity and faith studies.
