Delia Jarrett-Macauley

Poet, playwright and journalist Una Marson was the first Black woman to work for the BBC in the 1930s. I would have liked to hear more about her feminism and social activism but unfortunately apart from some journalism not much was adequately documented at the time, and most of her papers were destroyed after her death. This biography pulls together what is available, plus personal interviews with a few surviving friends and colleagues, but still feels a bit thin.
