Victoria Holt, Philippa Carr and Jean Plaidy were .pseudonyms used by Eleanor Hibbert, as well as several other names, Eleanor Burford, Elbur Ford, Kathleen Kellow, Anna Percival and Ellalice Tate.  She used the various names because the subject matter of her books was so different.

Eleanor Alice Burford, a British subject, was born September 1, 1906 in the Kensington, London surburb.  In her twenties she married George Percival Hibbert, a leather merchant.   Her first published book was in 1941 and she had written more than 200 books before her death January 8, 1993.
