Anne Spencer Morrow Lindber…gh (June 22, 1906 - February 7, 2001) was an American writer and aviator. Her father was Dwight Morrow, a partner in J. P. Morgan & Co., who became United States Ambassador to Mexico and United States Senator from New Jersey. She was the wife of decorated pioneer aviator Charles Lindbergh, with whom she made many exploratory flights. She married Charles in 1929, and in 1930 became the first woman to receive a U. S. glider pilot license. She served as radio operator and copilot to Charles on multiple exploratory flights and aerial surveys. In the 1930s, Charles and Anne explored and charted air routes between continents together. The Lindberghs were the first to fly from Africa to South America and explored polar air routes from North America to Asia and Europe. She wrote extensive poetry and nonfiction that helped the Lindberghs regain their reputation, which had been damaged in the days leading up to WWII. She authored the popular Gift from the Sea (1955), and became an inspirational figure for many American women. According to Publishers Weekly, the book was one of the top nonfiction bestsellers of the 1950s. She received the Elizabeth Montagu Prize, for her essay on women of the 18th century such as Madame d'Houdetot, and the Mary Augusta Jordan Literary Prize, for her fictional piece "Lida Was Beautiful". North to the Orient is a 1935 book by the American writer Anne Morrow Lindbergh. It is the account of the 1931 flight by her and her husband, Charles Lindbergh, from the United States to Japan and China, by the northern route over the Arctic frontier of Canada and Alaska, and Kamchatka peninsula. It also documented their volunteering flights as relief efforts for the infamous Central China flood of 1931. Lindbergh submitted the manuscript to Harcourt Brace in April 1935. By the following evening, she learned that it had been accepted for publication. The book was praised by critics. It received the inaugural National Book Award for Nonfiction. In July 1931, Charles and Anne Lindbergh set off on the adventure of a lifetime, an unofficial survey flight on the great-circle route from New York to points in the Far East. Unlike explorers of an earlier era who had pioneered trade routes to the Orient by sail, the famous couple did it by airplane. Four years after that remarkable journey, Anne published her description of their two-month "air voyage." North to the Orient is a lyrical and timeless travelogue. In eloquent prose Anne focuses on the flying, the people and the places. The 23 chapters serve as grand logbook entries, covering each of the aerial expedition's extraordinary episodes. A Lockheed Sirius, notable for its sleek monoplane configuration and 600-hp Wright Cyclone engine, was outfitted with a sliding glass canopy and a pair of plump pontoons expressly for the Lindberghs' journey. Even laden with fuel and supplies, the aircraft's range was an impressive 2,000 miles. Charles flew the plane from the front cockpit while Anne worked the radio in the aft cockpit. Decked out in an eye-catching black-and-orange paint scheme, the Sirius sparked the imagination of many observers, especially those who had never before seen an airplane. Indeed, when the Lindberghs made a later flight of the North Atlantic, an Eskimo boy in the remote stretches of Greenland named it Tingmissartoq: "one who flies like a big bird.". Charles A. Lindbergh (Maps) (illustrator).
