Marda Vanne
Marda "Scrappy" Vanne (born Margaretha van Hulsteyn)〔One source, a close friend, spells her name "Margueretha".〕〔 (27 Sep 1896 – 27 April 1970) was a South African actress who found fame in London.〔 ==Early life== Margaretha was born in Pretoria, South Africa to Sir Willem and Lady van Hulsteyn.〔 Willem was born in the Netherlands in 1865 and emigrated to South Africa at the age of fifteen. He became a leading lawyer in Johannesburg and later a member of the South African Parliament for many years. During the South African War, he became an advisor to Lord Milner, the Governor of the Cape Colony, and was knighted by King Edward VII in 1902.〔 She was briefly married to Johannes Gerhardus "Hans" Strijdom, but divorced within a year.〔 Strijdom later went on to become Prime Minister of South Africa from 1954 until 1958.〔 In 1914, Marda met Isaac Rosenberg, who was on a visit to South Africa, in Cape Town. He took a shine to her and drew a charcoal sketch of her. He also gave her a copy of his poem "If You Are Fire, and I Am Fire" and wrote a number of passionate love-poems at the time, which seem to have been inspired by her.〔Jean Moorcroft Wilson (2007) ''Isaac Rosenberg: The Making of a Great War Poet: A New Life'', Northwestern University Press ISBN 978-0-81012-604-6〕
