Inez Holden (1903-1974) was a British journalist, novelist, BBC script-writer and cultural critic. As well as being one of the Bright Young Things of the 1930s, she was later associated with George Orwell (briefly his lover, also a writing partner), novelist Anthony Powell, H G Wells (she rented his spare apartment in London during the Second World War, and introduced him to Orwell, unsuccessfully), and was one of the very few women to be published in Cyril Connolly's haute highbrow magazine Horizon. Her WW2 writing was focused on the experiences of the working classes and the voiceless. She published ten books, a mixture of fiction and non-fiction, between 1929 and 1956.
