In her long career, Kathleen Pettigrew emerged as a pivotal yet overlooked figure within MI6, tied to critical operations and interactions with iconic personalities such as Ian Fleming and Winston Churchill.
Dr. Claire Hubbard-Hall's research reveals that Kathleen Pettigrew wasn't just a secretary; she played crucial roles in crucial operations, managing top-secret communications during WWII.
Her work in MI6, including her oversight of wartime communications, emphasizes how underestimated roles can hold substantial power and influence in the realm of espionage.
By uncovering this hidden history, the intention of the new book is to right historical oversights and acknowledge the significant, yet often invisible, contributions of women in intelligence.
