Miss Celia Dunn was one of the owners of Algoma Steel Co. Celia was born in Canada, but had strong Irish roots. She visited Ireland many times where she met Wilks. She most likely organized the 1976 Wilks exhibition at the art gallery of the T. Eaton's Co. in Montreal, which at the time was one of the largest department stores in Canada.
