Dora Julia Myddleton Worrall (née Dawson;[1] 9 July 1866 – 3 October 1946),[2][3] known by her pen name Julia Dawson was a British journalist, socialist, and editor of the women's section of The Clarion.[1] As an editor, she has been highlighted as an important example of women journalists turning the traditionally domestic 'Woman's Page' to feminist ends.[4][5] She is notable for pioneering the use of the Clarion Van for spreading the ideas of socialism around Britain.[6][7][8]
