Writing under the pen name P. L. Travers (the two first initials were used to disguise a woman's name, a practice also adopted by other female writers, such as J. K. Rowling).
Pamela Lyndon Travers OBE (9 August 1899 – 23 April 1996) was the creator of the famous fictional nanny known as Mary Poppins, from the book of the same name.
She was born Helen Lyndon Goff in Maryborough, Queensland, Australia, to bank manager Travers Robert Goff and Margaret Agnes (née Morehead). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P._L._Travers
