In 1973 she became the first woman to take charge of a whip's office in either of the houses of the Parliament of the United Kingdom, and she served in the 1974 to 1979 Labour Government as Captain of the Gentlemen-at-Arms (Government Chief Whip). Early and personal lifeLlewelyn-Davies was born in Birkenhead in 1915 to Charles Percy Parry and Sarah Gertrude Parry (née Hamilton). She studied at Wallasey High School, Birkenhead High School, Liverpool College, Huyton and Girton College, Cambridge.[1][2] In 1934 she married Alexander Francis Rawdon Smith, a research physiologist; they had no children. After this marriage was dissolved, in 1943 she married Richard Llewelyn Davies, and their surname was hyphenated when Richard was elevated to the peerage as Lord Llewelyn-Davies. They had three daughters.[1] Political careerLlewelyn-Davies entered the civil service in 1940 and served in the Ministry of War Transport, the Foreign Office, the Air Ministry and the Commonwealth Relations Office.[2] She resigned to contest the Wolverhampton South-West parliamentary seat for Labour during the 1951 general election, but was defeated by the incumbent Conservative Enoch Powell. She subsequently unsuccessfully contested the Wandsworth Central seat in 1955 and 1959, but didn't stand for parliament again.[2] With support of those in the Wilson government and the backing of close friend Richard Crossman,[1] who described her in his diaries as "the real politician" when her husband was elevated to the peerage,[1] she was created a life peer as Baroness Llewelyn-Davies of Hastoe, of Hastoe in the County of Hertfordshire on 29 August 1967.[3] She went on to serve as a Government whip in the House of Lords between 1969 and 1970, and as Opposition Deputy Chief Whip from 1972. In 1973 she was elected Chief Whip, becoming the first woman to take charge of a whip's office in either house.[1] On the return of the Labour Party to government in 1974 she became Captain of the Gentlemen-at-Arms (Government Chief Whip). In 1975, she became a Privy Counsellor. From 1979 to 1982 she was once again Opposition Chief Whip. From 1982 to 1987, she was Principal Deputy Chairman of Committees in the House of Lords,[2] an office carrying with it the role of Chairman of the European Communities Committee.[4] DeathShe died on 6 November 1997, aged 82, in Colchester, at the home of former Conservative minister Lord Alport, who nursed her during the final years of her life. They sought solace in each other following the death of their partners, which developed into a love affair. They kept their relationship secret because she feared it would damage him politically, and she declined to marry him.[1] Shortly after her death Alport met academic Mark Garnett, who was working for Sir Edward Heath on his memoirs, and he asked him to write his life story. Speaking to The Guardian, Garnett said of the meeting: "He was wearing a black tie and he mentioned the recent death of a "close friend". ... It was only later that I realised that the light had gone out in his life."[5] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite web|url=http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/68457|title=Davies, Annie Patricia Llewelyn-, Baroness Llewelyn-Davies of Hastoe (1915–1997)|last=Pottle|first=Mark|date=October 2006|work=Oxford Dictionary of National Biography|publisher=Oxford University Press|doi=10.1093/ref:odnb/68457|accessdate=20 October 2012}} {{ODNBsub}} 2. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|title=Llewelyn-Davies Of Hastoe, Baroness|url=http://ukwhoswho.com/view/article/oupww/whowaswho/U180038|work=Who's Who|publisher=Oxford University Press|date=December 2007|accessdate=20 October 2012}} 3. ^{{London Gazette |issue=44396 |date=29 August 1967 |page=9499 }} 4. ^{{cite book|title=Companion to the standing orders and guide to the proceedings of the House of Lords|year=2010|publisher=The Stationery Office|isbn=9780108472411|author=House of Lords|edition=25th|page=25}} 5. ^{{cite web|last=Langdon|first=Julia|authorlink=Julia Langdon|title=Love across the Woolsack|url=https://www.theguardian.com/theguardian/1999/mar/08/features11.g21|work=The Guardian|accessdate=20 October 2012|date=8 March 1999}} External links
