Margaret Jane Moriano is a Vitosian politician who has served as the 23rd prime minister of Vitosium as well as the deputy prime minister to her predecessor, Sherman Salantino. She is heavily remembered as the first woman to become prime minister and has championed for women's rights her entire life. She is still alive today.
Personal Life
She was born as Margaret Jane Barrett to Lawrence and Sally Barrett in 1922. In 1934, Lawrence Barrett was arrested following his divorce to Sally Moriano.
When Maggie was 17, she began to fight for women's rights in the country and began to go by Margaret Moriano as opposed to Barrett, despite not legally being able to change her name at the time. She met Sherman Salantino during a rally in 1944 when she was 22. They had briefly dated but decided to remain friends a year later.
In 1950, she married Maxwell Douglas Tellend, a senator. Tellend passed away in 2013 after 63 years of marriage.
In 1954, once her policy of allowing women to change their name came about, she had her name legally changed to Margaret Jane Moriano to honour her mother who had passed away two years prior. Her husband, Max Tellend, notably supported and encouraged this decision.
