Lady Margaret Pansy Felicia Lamb, known as Lady Pansy Lamb (18 May 1904 – 19 February 1999) was an English writer under her maiden name of Pansy Pakenham. A novelist, biographer, and translator of French poetry, she was the wife of the Australian-born painter Henry Lamb. ==Early life== One of the four daughters of Thomas Pakenham, 5th Earl of Longford, by his marriage to Lady Mary Child Villiers, a daughter of Victor Child Villiers, 7th Earl of Jersey, the young Pansy did not go to school and claimed to be entirely self-educated. In 1915, when she was eleven, during the Great War, her father was killed in action at Scimitar Hill, part of the disastrous Gallipoli Campaign. Thereafter, Pansy was brought up by her mother with her brothers Edward and Frank and her sisters Violet, Mary, and Julia.〔John Jolliffe, ''(Obituary: Lady Pansy Lamb )'' in ''The Independent'' dated 25 February 1999, accessed 3 September 2013〕 In 1922 she was a debutante.〔''Books and Bookmen'', vol. 21 (1975), issue of 28 November 1975〕 Pansy Pakenham and her siblings had few friends outside of their immediate family, which Lady Mary attributed to the out-of-date clothes that they wore as children.〔Peter Stanford, (Lady Mary Clive obituary ). ''The Guardian'', 22 April 2010, accessed 20 August 2013〕 Mary's obituary in ''The Guardian'' in April 2010 said that the Longford children had had "a fierce independence of spirit and a positive relish for being different".〔 Their childhood Christmases were spent at their mother's ancestral home, Middleton Park at Middleton Stoney in Oxfordshire, and these were recalled in Mary's novel ''Christmas with the Savages'' (1955).〔(Obituary – Lady Mary Clive ), ''The Daily Telegraph'', 26 March 2010, accessed 1 September 2013〕
