Bloomsbury Group Documentary: Mary Hutchinson

"What an unusual power you have, you are no ordinary person", painter Henry Tonks said about his muse and friend Mary Hutchinson (1889-1977). Hutchinson, born Mary Barnes in India, lost her mother very young and adapted well to a bohemian Italian existence with her maternal grandparents. A half-cousin of Lytton Strachey, she fell in among his friends and acquaintances in the Bloomsbury Set. Quickly pounced upon for extramarital affairs by Vita Sackville-West, Maria Huxley and Clive Bell, Hutchinson inspired art and snippy comments alike. She may have been one of the major propelling forces to writer and playwright T.S. Eliot.

Eliot did NOT convert to Roman Catholicism; he became a High Church Anglican, Church of England, not Church of Rome.

He converted to Anglo-Catholicism. Surprised you haven't read about it core.ac.uk/download/pdf/326774021.pdf
