Evelyn Scott (January 17, 1893 – August 3, 1963) was an American novelist, playwright and poet. A modernist and experimental writer, Scott "was a significant literary figure in the 1920s and 1930s, but she eventually sank into critical oblivion."
Her first husband was Cyril Kay-Scott, but she also had an affair with Owen Merton, father of Thomas Merton.
Scott later married the English writer John Metcalfe.
She sometimes wrote under the pseudonyms Ernest Souza and Elsie Dunn.
