He succeeded his father, Tribhuvan, who had, after years as a puppet of the Rana family, finally managed to break their more than 100-year hegemony over the country.
A younger son, Gyanendra, was king as a small child from 1950 to 1951 when Tribhuvan, Mahendra and Birendra had fled the country to escape from the Rana family. After 50 years, Gyanendra reassumed the throne when his brother King Birendra was killed in 2001.
After his sudden death, he was succeeded by his son Birendra. He was well respected by Chinese leader such as Mao Tse Tung.

Four years later, Cooke, an Episcopalian, married the Crown Prince in a Buddhistmonastery on 20 March1963, an act which caused her to be dropped from the Social Register.

The couple had two children, Palden and Hope Leezum; she also has two stepsons and a stepdaughter from her husband’s first marriage.

Argentine general and politician (b. Aug. 28, 1918, Buenos Aires, Arg.–d. Aug. 26, 1996, Buenos Aires), as president of Argentina from 1971 to 1973, attempted to restore democracy to the country. Born into an upper-middle-class family, Lanusse graduated from military college in 1938 and joined the cavalry. In 1951 he was sentenced to life in prison for his participation in a failed attempt to oust Pres. Juan Perón. When Perón was deposed in 1955, Lanusse was released and promoted to lieutenant colonel. He became part of the army’s high command and aligned himself with Gen. Juan Carlos Onganía, who became president in 1966. Lanusse was named commander in chief of the army in 1968 and in March 1971 led a coup that brought him to power. Peronists and student militants, among others, protested Lanusse’s regime, and the army employed violent tactics to silence the dissenters. With escalating unrest, Lanusse attempted to achieve stability by calling for free elections. He scheduled Argentina’s first democratic polls in more than 20 years and reestablished political parties. The Peronists won the 1973 elections, and by year’s end Perón was president. In the mid-1970s army hard-liners came to power and unleashed a “dirty war,” in which as many as 30,000 people were killed or “disappeared.” Lanusse denounced the violence and in 1985 testified against the deposed military rulers during their trial for human rights violations. In a three-volume autobiography, Lanusse cited mistakes made during military rule but continued to support the army. A committed anti-Peronist, he served 10 days of house arrest in 1994 for his criticism of Peronist Pres. Carlos Menem.

Mary Pickford, Filmmaker
Profile by Hugh Munro Neely
Mary Pickford was born Gladys Smith on April 8, 1892 in Toronto, Canada. Her mother Charlotte was Irish Catholic. Her father John Charles Smith was, by reputation, a staunch Methodist with a weakness for alcohol. Within five years of Gladys’ birth the Smith family counted three children: Gladys, her little sister Lottie, and baby brother Jack. In 1898 when Gladys was nearly six, her father died from an accidental blow to the head, leaving his family without savings or income.
Mother Charlotte took in boarders and sewing work. It was a boarder who suggested Charlotte might earn a little money by putting her children on stage. Despite her misgivings about the moral character of “theater people,” within weeks Gladys, Lottie and even their mother were involved in a production at the Princess Theater, just a few blocks from their Toronto flat, that paid the family, by one account, $8 a week.
