The undisputed greatest personality in the history of English literature, Sir William Shakespeare is still remembered today for his timeless masterpieces that he contributed with utmost generosity to the English speaking world. Creating inspiring sonnets and constructing immaculate plots was but a way of life for this servant of the arts. As the saying goes, 'behind every successful man there is a wise woman' the great Shakespeare too was a family man who had a loving wife by the name of Anne Hathaway.

Although she was the wife of such an important figure at the time, little has been recorded about her life or her character. Shakespeare himself it seems was very miserly when it came to praising Anne Hathaway as she is believed to be mentioned in only one sonnet that he wrote. However the name of Anne Hathaway is mentioned in a poem which according to experts on the subject belongs to Charles Dibdin an acclaimed dramatist and songwriter. Anne Hathaway was the proud mother of Susanna Hall, Hamnet Shakespeare and Judith Quiney. She too passed away almost seven years after the death of her husband.
