SIR CECIL WALTER HARDY BEATON, CBE (14 January 1904 - 18 January 1980) was an English fashion and portrait photographer, diarist, style icon, interior designer and an Academy Award-winning stage and costume designer for films and the theatre. During the Second World War Beaton was initially posted to the Ministry of Information and given the task of recording images from the home front. During this assignment he captured one of the most enduring images of British suffering during the war, that of three-year-old Blitz victim Eileen Dunne recovering in hospital, clutching her beloved teddy bear. When the image was published, America had not yet officially joined the war - but splashed across the press in the US, images such as Beaton's helped push the American public to put pressure on their Government to help Britain in its hour of need. He later travelled as official war photographer to Middle East, India and China.
