Olive Gwendoline Potter (1895-1988) was admitted to study medicine at The London Hospital Medical College just after the First World War. She was amongst the women students who were permitted to become medical students at The London due to the shortage in doctors at that time. She went on to practice as a Doctor in Surrey, and wrote a number of children’s books under the pseudonym Josephine Elder. |
