Mrs. Miniver | 
#OnThisDay in 1901 Joyce Anstruther was born in England. Writing under the name of Jan Struthers, she is perhaps best known for creating the character of Mrs Miniver in a series of articles in The Times. Originally a light slice of life piece, the Minivers delved into darker territory with the advancement of WWII, engaging the sympathies of the public. Both Roosevelt and Churchill credited its importance to the war effort. #HistoryGetsLIT
