Elfrida Eden was born into a distinguished family - her uncle was
Sir Anthony Eden, British Prime Minister in the mid-1950s. As one
of the last of the true 'debs', Elfrida mingled with the stars in
the 1950s and 60s and has counted many household names from the
world of entertainment as lifelong friends, including David Jacobs,
Derek Nimmo and Peter Bowles. She auditioned as a singer for Judy
Garland at the star's home and turned Norman Wisdom down when he
offered her a part in a film (her family considered it unsuitable
for one so young). She also turned Sean Connery down when he made a
pass at her at a party, the day he was cast as James Bond. Highly
talented but too tall for the ballet stage herself, 'Elfie' went on
to run one of London's leading ballet schools. Despite some moments
of great sadness along the way, Elfrida has led a privileged,
fascinating and exceptionally happy life, and to celebrate it she
has written her story.
