Annabell Milbanke was tutored by a Cambridge professor in studies such as literature,science,and mathematics. Her love for math earned her the nickname "Princess of Parallelograms". She felt priveliged to be educated since the opportunity was rare for most young women of her time. She married poet Lord Byron and had one daughter named Ada. Her husband's moody nature eventually led to a split up between the couple. Annabell died on May 16,1860, one day before her sixty-eighth birthday, a victim of breast cancer.
