Notă biografică
Betty Bendell was one of the top five British women's magazine columnists in the late 1960s and 1970s. She wrote continuously for a range of magazines, including Annabel, Woman, Homes and Gardens, The Lady and The Countryman, but she was most well-known for her long-running columns in Good Housekeeping and Family Circle. She was perceptive, direct and funny, one of the leading comic writers of her day.
Betty Bendell (1929-2021) was born in Wimbledon, south London, and served in the Women's Royal Naval Service before marrying a Royal Navy photographer in 1957. They had a son and a daughter and lived in Goring and Henley before emigrating to Canada in 1975. She wrote for a range of Canadian magazines before retiring in 2012, aged 83.
