}}Donald Bell (1937–2003) was a Canadian journalist, who won the Stephen Leacock Award in 1973 for his book Saturday Night at the Bagel Factory.[1] The book has also been credited with helping to make the bagel a staple of Montreal's food culture beyond the city's Jewish community alone.[2]

Based in Montreal, Bell was a columnist for Books in Canada and a contributor to various newspapers and magazines. He was an early popularizer of the theory that Thomas Neill Cream, a Canadian medical doctor, was the real Jack the Ripper, through pieces published in both The Criminologist and the Toronto Star.[3]
