Penelope Fitzgerald (1916 - 2000), is another Somerville College alumna, most famous for her 1979 Booker Prize winning novel Offshore. This bromide print was taken in 1999, and hangs in the National Portrait Gallery (© Jillian Edelstein / Camera Press). Fitzgerald was the niece of Persephone author Winifred Peck, and in the Times Literary Supplement in 1985 she stated: "if I could have back one of the many Winifred Peck titles I once possessed I would choose House-Bound" (Persephone Book No. 72), for which she wrote the preface. Penelope Fitzgerald began her literary career aged 58 with the publication of a biography of the Pre-Raphelite artist Edward Burne-Jones. She was included in a list of "The 50 greatest British writers since 1945", printed by The Times in 2008.
