Marion Fraser

Lady Marion Anne Fraser LT (née Forbes; 17 October 1932 – 25 December 2016) was a Scottish music educator.

[3] In 1956, she married William Kerr Fraser, a former president of the Glasgow University Students' Representative Council and at the time a junior civil servant at the Scottish Office.

[2] Fraser worked as a music teacher and became director of St Mary's Music School in Edinburgh from 1989 to 1995, as well as being founding chair of the Friends of the Royal Scottish Academy from 1986 to 1989, a governor of the former Laurel Bank School for Girls from 1988 to 1995 and a Director of Scottish Opera from 1990 to 1994.

In 1996, shortly after stepping down as Director of St. Mary's, she was created a Lady of the Order of the Thistle.

[6] Her husband had been created a Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath in 1979 (and subsequently elevated within the order to Knight Grand Cross), entitling her to be addressed as Lady Fraser; however, she now became Lady Marion Fraser in her own right.
