Ep27 - Bankside - Ellen Terry, glamour and glitz

Edith Craig

When a mother is internationally famous, it’s hard for a child, especially for a daughter, to step outside her mother’s shadow. And that’s why, really, it’s impossible to separate Ellen Terry, the most beloved actress of the late nineteenth century—the Meryl Streep of her day—from her daughter, Edith Craig. Edy (as she was always known) was an accomplished theatre producer, and activist for women’s suffrage—plus a member of the most famous lesbian threesomes of the early twentieth century.
