Princess of Parallelograms

Anne Isabella Byron was born on May 17, 1792. From an early age, it was obvious that Anne was a very smart child. To help her intelligence blossom, her parents hired a tutor for her, a man named  William Frend. Frend was a former Cambridge professor, and challeged young Byron like any Cambridge student. Anne excelled in many of her classes, but esspecial enjoyed math. This love and enjoyment of math led her father to give her the title of his "ptincess of  parallelograms."
