George Robb is Professor of History at William Paterson University of New Jersey. Born Christabel Marshall on October 24, 1871 in Exeter, southwest England, Christopher St. John was known to friends and colleagues as Chris. Active as a journalist and suffragist during the early part of the twentieth century, Marshall is best remembered today for work preserving the legacy of actor Ellen Terry than for their own feminist novels and plays. Marshall lived for over thirty years at Small Hythe, the Ellen Terry museum, with two intimate companions Edith (Edy) Terry and Clare (Tony) Atwood. They died in 1960 at the age of eighty-nine.
