More on Imelda Marcos
Description from Wikipedia:
Imelda Remedios Visitacion Romualdez-Marcos (born Imelda Remedios Visitacion Trinidad Romualdez on July 2, 1929) is the widow of former dictator Ferdinand Marcos, and is herself an influential political figure in the Philippines. She is known as the "Steel Butterfly" due to her role as a controversial figure not only in her home country but also around the world. In 1996, the Australian Magazine ranked her 58th among "The 100 Most Powerful Women in the World". Newsweek, meanwhile, listed her in 2009 as one of the "Greediest People of All Time", to which she said "I plead guilty." Her extensive shoe, gown, and jewelry collections have allowed her to gain notoriety. ==Early life==
Imelda Remedios Visitacion Romualdez-Marcos was born on July 2, 1929 in San Juan de Dios Hospital in Manila. Her parents were Vicente Orestes Lopez Romualdez (of Spanish-Filipino blood) and Remedios Trinidad (1902-1938) , the second wife of the widowed Vicente. She is of Visayan and Tagalog descent. Her paternal ancestors, the wealthy and prominent Lopezes of Leyte (The eldest daughter of Friar Francisco Lopez, the Lopez patriarch, Doña Trinidad Lopez Romualdez is Imelda's paternal grandmother), claimed to have founded the town of Tolosa, Leyte . Her own branch of the family was not political. Her father was a scholarly man more interested in music and culture than in public life. Her mother, Remedios Trinidad, a dressmaker who grew up in an orphanage in Manila, said to have been an illegitimate offspring of a friar, was from the town of Baliuag, Bulacan.
In 1966, Ferdinand Marcos became the 10th President of the Philippines. Together with Imelda, he would rule the Philippines as a dictator from September 21, 1972 up to until he was ousted in February 1986 in the famous People Power Revolution when he fled the Philippines.
