Anne Shirley at a Glance 

Anne Shirley is a fictional character introduced first in the 1908 novel Anne of Green Gables by Lucy Maud Montgomery. Montgomery wrote in her journal that the idea for Anne's story came from relatives who, planning to adopt an orphaned boy, received a girl instead. Anne Shirley's appearance was inspired by a magazine photograph which Montgomery cut out and kept, unaware of the model's identity as the notorious 1900s beauty Evelyn Nesbit.
