Hilda Campbell Vaughan (married name Morgan, 12 June 1892 – 4 November 1985) was a Welsh novelist and short story writer writing in English.
Her ten, varied novels, set mostly in her native Radnorshire, concern rural communities and heroines.
Her first was The Battle to the Weak (1925) and her last The Candle and the Light (1954).
She was married to the writer Charles Langbridge Morgan, who had an influence on her writings.
Although favourably received by her contemporaries, Vaughan later received minimal critical attention.
Rediscovery began in the 1980s and 1990s, as part of a renewed interest in Welsh literature in English.
