Ann MacEwen

She married John Wheeler on 21 December 1940 who had been a member of the Tomorrow Town team but who, by then, had joined the RAF.

[2] MacEwen believed strongly in the benefits of town planning and architecture although she thought that politics would be required to fully achieve them.

The following year she was planning the post war reconstruction of Stepney and Poplar working for Percy Johnson Marshall and Arthur Ling at London County Council.

This sexist approach changed and she was able to take a leasing role in planning north London which they intended to have community centres, nursery schools, medical facilities and parks.

[2] There was an uprising in Hungary in 1956 and MacEwan and her husband were disappointed by Britain's communist party reaction to their plight.

[1] Malcolm was cared for by Ann during a lengthy period of poor health during the 1990s, ending with his death in 1996.
