Who is Pauline Parker?

Pauline Yvonne Parker, who is also known as Pauline Rieper was born on the 26th of May in 1938 and she hails from Christchurch, New Zealand. Parker met Anne Perry, known as Juliet Hulme when they both were in their teen years.

The friendship of Parker and Hulme formed an elaborate fantasy life together. They both wrote various plays, stories, and books centered on this world. Both the friends became nearly obsessed with each other, to the point that Parker’s parents were really concerned about the relationship of girls if they were engaged in a sexual relationship.

Graham’s book reveals that Pauline is a devout Catholic, who shifted from Hoo near Rochester to Orkney island of Burray, Scotland. Perry also shifted to Scotland, with the late author settling in Portmahomack in 1989.

Parker’s elder sister, Wendy said Parker was “living in solitude. Pauline was deeply religious. Pauline is leading an unusual existence and hasn’t got TV or radio.”

“She is Catholic and she often likes to spend her time doing prayers,” Wendy further added.  Pauline Parker is reported to teach kids how to ride horses in Burray.
