Georgia Blanche Douglas Camp Johnson, better known as Georgia Douglas Johnson (September 10, 1880 – May 15, 1966), was a poet and playwright. She was one of the earliest female African-American playwrights and an important figure of the Harlem Renaissance.

Johnson was well recognized for her poems collected in The Heart of a Woman (1918). She explores themes for women, such as isolation, loneliness, pain, love, and the role of being a woman during this time. 

Johnson is the brainchild of the S Street Salon. Her house at 1461 S Street NW became known as a satellite for writers in the nation’s segregated capital. It was considered one of the great literary salons of the era.  She became a welcoming host to her fellow writers. Among the regular visitors were Zora Neale Hurston, May Miller, Langston HughesMary BurrillJean ToomerAlain LockeAngela Weld Grimke, and many other writers. She often called the home “Half-Way House” and provided a welcoming haven for visitors and a shelter for artists in need.
