Nancy Harkness Love (February 14, 1914 – October 22, 1976), born Hannah Lincoln Harkness, was an American pilot and commander during World War II. ==Early life== Born in Houghton, Michigan on February 14, 1914 as the daughter of a wealthy physician, Harkness developed an intense interest in aviation at an early age. At 16, she took her first flight and earned her pilot's license within a month.〔Aldrich, Captain Nancy Welz. ("Nancy Harkness Love." ) ''20th Century Aviation Magazine.com''. Retrieved: August 20, 2014.〕 Although she went to all the right schools, including Milton Academy in Massachusetts and Vassar in New York, she was restless and adventurous. In 1932, by the end of her freshman year, dubbed, “The Flying Freshman!”, she earned her commercial license and received national attention.〔 At Vassar, she earned extra money taking students for rides in an aircraft she rented from a nearby airport.〔Pelletier 2008. p. 136.〕
