Jane Loring Gray

Jane Loring Gray (1821–1909) was an American editor. Although she was not herself a botanist, through her sympathy with her husband, Asa Gray, in his scientific work, she became acquainted with most of the American botanists of his time and, as his companion during his travels in Europe, she met many distinguished foreign botanists of that generation as well as some of the botanists of a still earlier generation.
