Harriet Martineau (1802-1876) was a political economist, author, journalist, social commentator and leading feminist intellectual. She published widely and her publications included popular works on economics, several novels, and various children's stories. She was also a regular contributor to and editorial writer for the 'Daily News' and 'Edinburgh Review'.
She was born in Norwich in 1802, the fifth child of Thomas Martineau and Elizabeth Rankin Martineau. She began her literary career at a young age and her first article on 'Female Writers on Practical Divinity' appeared in the Unitarian periodical, 'The Monthly Repository' in 1821. Her first major successful work was 'Illustrations of Political Economy' (1832-34), which was quickly followed by 'Poor Law and Paupers Illustrated' (1833), and 'Illustrations of Taxation' (1834). She visited America between 1834 and 1836 and on her return wrote 'Society in America' (1837) and 'Retrospect of Western Travel' (1838). She continued to travel, visiting Italy, Egypt and Palestine, after which she published 'Eastern Life' (1848). Later publications included 'History of England during the Thirty Years' Peace' (1849) and a translation of Comte's 'Philosophie Positive' (1853). She lived initially in London then moved to Tynemouth near Newcastle to be near her brother. She spent four years there during a period of ill-health but from the 1840s lived at Ambleside in the Lake District in a house she designed herself, called The Knoll.
Harriet Martineau was an exceptional correspondent throughout her life and exchanged letters not just with publishers but also with political, literary and other prominent individuals of the time. She suffered from ill-health for many years and was also profoundly deaf. During her later life she was cared for by her nieces, most notably Maria Martineau.

Beatrice Lillie was born in Toronto, Canada. She is believed to be the leading comedienne of 20th century theatre. Lillie performed as a comedy actress in many revues produced by Andre Charlot from 1914. Noël Coward was her close friend and often wrote her material. They also performed together, for example in Coward's This Year of Grace in 1928. In addition, Lillie performed in a number of US shows, such as An Evening with Beatrice Lillie. In 1920, Beatrice Lillie married the future Sir Robert Peel at his family's estate; Drayton Manor. Their only son, also Robert, was killed in the Second World War. Lillie spent most of the war entertaining troops around the Mediterranean, Africa and the Middle East. Her last Broadway appearance was in High Spirits, the 1964 musical version of Noël Coward's Blithe Spirit.
