'''Marjorie Sykes''' (1905-1995) was a British educator who went to live in India in the 1920s and joined the Indian independence movement, spending most of the remainder of her life in India. She wrote many books and became acquainted with many of the leading figures in Indian politics and culture, including [[Rabindranath Tagore]] and [[Mahatma Gandhi]].

==Biography==

The daughter of a village schoolmaster, Marjorie Sykes was born in [[Mexborough]], [[Yorkshire]], [[England]] on 11 May 1905.<ref name=wanmec>{{cite web |last1=Williams |first1=J. S. |date=9 December 2014 |title=Marjorie Sykes |url=http://www.toxipedia.org/display/wanmec/Marjorie+Sykes |website=WANMEC (Washington Nuclear Museum and Educational Center) |access-date=10 July 2015}}</ref>
Sykes was nine years old when the [[World War I|First World War]] broke out, forcing a beloved teacher, who happened to be German, to leave her position.<ref name=macdonald10/>{{rp|123}}
Benefiting from a scholarship, Sykes began college studies in 1923 at [[Newnham College, Cambridge]]. There she heard of [[Mahatma Gandhi]] from the many Indian students.<ref name=renga05/> She graduated with first class honors in English in 1928.<ref>{{cite news|title=Marjorie Sykes: India's faithful Friend|author=Hallam Tennyson|work=[[The Guardian]]|date=20 September 1995|page=16}}</ref>

Sykes came to [[Chennai|Madras]] (now called Chennai) in 1928 to serve as a teacher at the [[Bentinck School, Vepery]],<ref name=Hindu>{{cite news|last1=Sridhar|first1=Asha|title=From 21 students to 2,000|url=http://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/chennai/from-21-students-to-2000/article4326537.ece|access-date=6 November 2015|agency=The Hindu|issue=Chennai|date=21 January 2013}}</ref> remaining a resident of India for more than 60 years. She contributed enormous effort to advancing new forms of education advocated by [[Mahatma Gandhi]] and [[Rabindranath Tagore]].<ref name=renga05/>

In late 1928, a talk by [[Chakravarti Rajagopalachari]] inspired Sykes' interest in participating in the independence movement.<ref name=renga05/>
Late in 1938, she met both [[Rabindranath Tagore]] (traveling to his school at [[Shantiniketan]]) and [[Mahatma Gandhi]] (traveling to his ashram at [[Sevagram]]).<ref name=renga05/> Beginning in 1939 she joined [[Santiniketan]], working closely with Tagore and becoming acquainted with [[Charles Freer Andrews|C.F. Andrews]], later in 1944-46 holding the C.F. Andrews Memorial Chair at Santiniketan while working on Andrews' biography.<ref name=renga05/>

In 1945, Gandhi invited Sykes to join his team working on [[Nai Talim]] (New Education), and she later became Principal of Gandhi's Basic Education Programme at Sevagram. In the 1960s Sykes served in efforts to bring peace in [[Nagaland]], as well as living and conducting [[nonviolence]] training in [[Kotagiri]] in the [[Nilgiri mountains|Nilgiris Hills]], and becoming increasingly active among Quakers, at [[Rasulia]] ([[Madhya Pradesh]]) as well as outside India.<ref name=renga05/>

After an illness, at age 85 years, Sykes moved in 1991 from India to Swarthmore, a Quaker residential home in [[Buckinghamshire]], England, where she remained until her death on 17 August 1995.<ref name=renga05/><ref name=historyorbsykes>{{cite web |last1=Anonymous |title=Famous Deaths for August 1995 |url=http://www.historyorb.com/deaths/date/1995/august |website=HistoryOrb |access-date=10 July 2015}}</ref>
