Mark your calendars for Wednesday, October 18, as we celebrate the birthday of Scripps College founder Ellen Browning Scripps.
Since the founding of Time magazine in 1923, few women graced the cover in the publication’s first decade. Ellen, one of the “most beloved women in Southern California,” was honored on the February 22, 1926 issue. She was a leader in philanthropy, establishing many health, educational, and cultural institutions throughout California. Ellen left a legacy.
