- Eleanor Jarman was nicknamed ‘The Blonde Tigress’ after a robbery-gone-wrong in 1933. She had a string of successful robberies, until the very last one devolved into murder. The papers paint her as vicious and deadly, but is that a fair portrayal of a woman trying to survive as a single mother during the Great Depression? Listen along and decide for yourself: is Eleanor a vicious murderer, a misunderstood mother, or somewhere in between?
