    Early life and education

    Wallis Annenberg was born in 1939 in Philadelphia,[2] into a Jewish family, the daughter of publishing magnate Walter Hubert Annenberg, and his first wife, Bernice Veronica Dunkelman, known as Ronny, a socialite from Toronto, Canada.

    Her grandfather Moses Annenberg (1877–1942), owner of The Philadelphia Inquirer,[3] emigrated from Germany to Chicago in 1900. Her father owned a 15-acre (61,000 m2) estate called Inwood, where Wallis was raised.[2]
