Helen Porter

Helen Kemp Porter (10 November 1899 – 7 December 1987) was a botanist from Imperial College London. She was a Fellow of the Royal Society and the first female professor at Imperial College London. Her studies of polysaccharide metabolism in tobacco plants were groundbreaking; she was one of the first British scientists to use the innovative technologies of chromatography and radioactive tracers.
== Life ==
Porter was born Helen Archbold in 1899, in the town of Farnham, Surrey. Her father, George Archbold, was the headmaster of a school and her mother, Caroline Broughton, was a Belgian-trained professional singer. The Archbold family moved to Bristol in 1901, when Porter was two years old. She was educated at home during her early years in a conservative Victorian environment, acquiring skill in reading and writing French and English.〔 She had one older sister. Porter's childhood was disrupted by the beginning of World War I, prompting the family to split up; her mother moved to London to work in the Government National Kitchens and her father moved to Yorkshire to work at a different school. Porter and her sister stayed in Surrey to continue attending the Clifton High School for Girls.〔 In her early years, she traveled extensively, canoeing the Danube River in the 1920s and making several trips to Middle Eastern archaeological sites. Porter married William George Porter, a physician, in 1937. After a few years of marriage, William Porter died; however, Helen Porter kept his last name for professional purposes. She remarried in 1962, to Arthur Huggett, a professor of physiology with two children; he died in 1968. Throughout her life, Porter maintained a passion for needlework; her works were often based on imagery culled from contemporary scientific publications. She died in 1987 at the age of 88.〔
