Helen Barrett Montgomery (1861-1934) was a social reformer, a Baptist leader, and a prominent intellectual of the American women's ecumenical missionary movement. A graduate of Wellesley College, she gained distinction as the first woman ever elected to the school board in the city of Rochester, New York (1899), and the first woman ever elected to the presidency of the Northern Baptist Convention (1921). The Bible and Missions is one of six books she wrote for the Central Committee on the United States of Foreign Missions.
