  <about><![CDATA[Alice Ann Munro, née Laidlaw (born 10 July 1931) is a Canadian short-story writer who is widely considered one of the world's premier fiction writers. Munro is a three-time winner of Canada's Governor General's Award for fiction. Her stories focus on human relationships looked at through the lens of daily life. She has thus been referred to as &quot;the Canadian Chekhov.&quot;]]></about>    <gender>female</gender>  <hometown>Wingham, Ontario</hometown>  <born_at>07/10/1931</born_at>
