Biographical hole

This article jumps from its subject's birth to her university graduation: nothing about her family, childhood, etc. If these facts are truly unknown, the article should say so. Minturn (talk) 15:11, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is a short personal life section at the bottom of the page. However, unless you have a reference that there's nothing known about her childhood, you can't just assert that's the case. It maybe that we/I don't have access to the source. Lajmmoore (talk) 15:19, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
