Roberta Leigh

    Roberta Leigh, známa aj pod pseudonymami Rachel Lindsay, Rozella Lake a Janey Scott, bola jednou z prvých autoriek romantických románov, ktorá priniesla silné hrdinky s kariérnymi ambíciami. Tieto postavy sa nenechali ovládať mužskými protagonistami. Leigh vlastnila aj filmovú spoločnosť a vytvorila sedem televíznych seriálov pre deti. Hudbu k seriálom často tvorila sama nahrávaním melódií, ktoré potom aranžovali iní. Okrem písania sa venovala aj maliarstvu a jej abstraktné diela boli vystavované v londýnskych galériách.
