Early life edit

Snowdon was born on 1 April 1951. Her father was a shop-keeper.[2]

Career edit

Snowdon was a primary school teacher in Chilton and Ferryhill, County Durham. In 1989, in order to advance her career and become a deputy head teacher, she underwent a medical. This showed that her aortic valve "had completely perished" and she required immediate surgery to prevent her death by Christmas of that year. The surgery, in which a metal valve was successfully fitted, saved her life. However, such a major health issue meant that she could no longer teach.[2]

On 3 August 2006, she was commissioned a Deputy Lieutenant (DL) in the County of Durham.[3] On 8 March 2013, she was appointed Lord Lieutenant of County Durham, becoming the Queen's representative in the county.[4] She succeeded Sir Paul Nicholson to become the county's 30th Lord Lieutenant.[2] Following the death of Queen Elizabeth II, she remained in her position but as the King’s representative in county Durham.

Personal life edit

She is married to Keith Snowdon, a farmer.[1][5]
