Gay Courter is an American author, filmmaker, and children's rights activist. Her first non-fiction work, The Beansprout Book (1973), introduced beansprouts to the supermarkets of America, and she eventually became known as "The Pied Piper of sprouting." Her works have been translated into several languages, including French, Spanish, and Swedish. Courter is credited with being one of the first Women Authors to write a published novel on a word processor.
