Elise Baker

Elise Baker’s academic background (BA Hons, PGDip) and a career of searching for hidden truths in dusty libraries and archives led her to discover an area of history that has languished in obscurity for far too long; brave women heroes whose achievements have long been overshadowed by their male counterparts, silenced and rendered invisible.

Her mother’s family spent years wandering around Europe as refugees during the Second World War and its aftermath. Growing up hearing their stories gave her a lifelong fascination with this historical era.

She has a special interest in feminism, women’s history, and World War II. Elise is passionate about excavating the past to unearth the hidden histories of women whose incredible stories have been buried and bringing them out into the light of public awareness.
