Josefina Ramos was born on 14 July 1910 in Parral, Chihuahua, Mexico. She was an actress, known for La cautivadora (1931). She was married to Arnold Gray. She died on 5 May 1936 in Jacumba, California, USA.- British novelist Beatrice Harradan was born in London, England, in 1864. Unusually for the time, she was a very well-educated woman, having attended Dresden University, Queen's College, Cheltenham College and Bedford College in London. She received a B.A. in 1883 from London University, with honors in mathematics and classics. Her first book, "Things Will Take a Turn", was published in 1891. Her best-known book, "Ships That Pass in the Night", was turned down by several publishers before the firm of Lawrence & Bullen published it in 1893. It was an instant success, sold more than a million copies and was eventually turned into a film (Ships That Pass in the Night (1921)).
At 50 years old she became involved in the suffragette movement, marching in parades, passing out fliers on street corners and speaking at suffragette meetings.
She died in 1936 at Barton-on-Sea, Hampshire, England, aged 72.
