Florence Fenwick Miller (1854–1935) was an English journalist, author, and social reformer who played a significant role in the late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century feminist movement. Known for her dedication to women's suffrage and social progress, she used her platform as a writer and editor to advocate for systemic change and women's intellectual and political advancement.

Her most notable contribution to feminist journalism was her tenure as the editor and proprietor of The Woman's Signal, an early and highly influential feminist publication. Under her leadership for four years, the journal became a vital space for discussing women's rights, temperance, and social reform, reflecting her broader commitment to elevating women's voices in the public sphere.

Throughout her career, Miller balanced her work as a writer with active social reform, establishing herself as a pioneering figure in the British women's movement. Her contributions as both a journalist and an organizer helped pave the way for future generations of feminist writers and activists.
