Lady Beaverbrook : ウィキペディア英語版 | Marcia Anastasia Christoforides
Marcia Anastasia Christoforides, Lady Beaverbrook (formerly Lady Dunn) (July 27, 1909 – October 28, 1994) was a philanthropist, an art collector, and racehorse owner.〔 ==Married to two millionaires== Born in Sutton, Surrey, England, she was the daughter of John Christoforides. For a number of years she worked as personal secretary for the wealthy Canadian financier James Hamet Dunn, 1st Baronet. Eventually their working relationship became personal and although he was thirty-six years her senior, in 1942 she became his third wife. She had been a devoted employee and he would seek her input on most every business matter for the rest of his life. The couple maintained homes in England, France, and at the Canadian seaside resort of St. Andrews in New Brunswick, the province of her husband's birth. In the late 1940s, Lady Dunn and her husband developed a friendship with the Spanish artist Salvador Dalí who painted several portraits of them, notably (Equestrian Fantasy - Portrait of Lady Dunn. ) These works are now on permanent display at the Beaverbrook Art Gallery in Fredericton, New Brunswick.
