ALICE
The name Alice may conjure up images of sweet old ladies or popular culture figures — there are, of course, many people with the name Alice. However, today, we want to talk about Alice Liddell. If she were an immortal being, she would have turned exactly 170 today. Of course, Alice wasn’t immortal, she died in 1934 at the age of 82. During her youth, she was a muse for Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, better known as Lewis Carroll. That’s right: Alice Liddell was the inspiration for Alice In Wonderland and Alice Through The Looking Glass.
