She was born in the British Raj in Quetta (now in Pakistan) and through her father, Miles Plowden, was a descendant of the famous Elizabethan jurist Edmund Plowden. Her other ancestor Henry Chichele, Archbishop of Canterbury, was a co-founder of All Souls College at Oxford in 1438. She was educated at a private school in England and by a governess and was presented at Court. She began her career at the BBC as a secretary before becoming a script writer. She went on to author numerous works on Tudor and Stuart history, with a special emphasis on the women of the period.  | |
