The King’s Speech and Joan Younger Dickinson

Lance and I went to see the movie, The King’s Speech today. (We liked it.)

In the movie, King George VI becomes the head of England after his brother leaves the throne to marry Wallace Simpson – shown above from the movie. In the post-World War II years, they went to the Bahamas, where the Duke became governor.

Above is a photo of women’s page and women’s magazine writer Joan Younger Dickinson interviewing the real Wallace Simpson – who by that time was the Duchess of Windsor – in the Bahamas. (The image is at the University of Wyoming.) I am revising my article about Joan Younger Dickinson for a revise-and-resubmit.
