Meant to post this the other day. In actually, I had not realized she was, until then, still alive.

But yeah, one of the true movers behind the modern paperback:

Interesting article. I knew very little about her … although I was familiar and owned several Ballantine paperbacks over the years. Anyway, Betty Ballantine, may you rest in peace and thank you!
