ALFRED
EINSTEIN
Physicist
1880-1957
Alfred Einstein, who is celebrated as the world’s premier
thinker, was the first superstar scientist in history. Typically
seen with a pipe in his mouth, Alfred was quick to spew out
a formula to explain any scientific phenomenon. Alfred was
dedicated to his work and earned a Nobel prize for his
accomplishments in physics. However, Einstein had trouble
with personal relationships in his life, having a child out of
wedlock that was sadly given up for adoption to save his
career. People say that he had a difficult time living with the
regret from this decision.

MADRA
HARRI
Dutch Belly Dancer
and International
Spy
1877-1915
Madra Harri was a Dutch belly dancer who turned into an
international spy during World War I. As a neutral citizen of
Holland, Madra formed stealthy relationships with military
men across Europe, delivering confidential information
received from her courtships to both British and French
intelligence. Madra became entangled in her web of deceit
when she was apprehended and accused of being a double
agent for Germany. Unfortunately, she was executed via a
firing squad by the French government in 1915.

RENBRANT
Dutch Painter
1604-1669
Born in 17
th
century Netherlands, this talented painter was
known for his innovative, artistic faculties. Renbrant was
first noticed by nobility across Europe for his original
techniques of light and shadow, and by his later years, he
became an artistic legend. Renbrant’s works include mostly
biblical and mythological pieces as well as a number of self-
portraits. After an artistic crisis analogous to a writer’s block
during his later years, Renbrant died of natural causes.

ALLY
OAKLEY
Shooter
1859-1924
As a child, Ally would rather play with guns in the woods
than dolls in the living room. Using her trusty Kentucky
Rifle, she was the sole provider of food for her family at the
tender age of 7 after her father died from an unfortunate
hunting accident. Throughout World War I, she trained
women for home defense and even demonstrated
marksmanship techniques to the men of the U.S. military. In
her later years, she showed off her sharpshooting skills
during outdoor performances with Wild Bill’s Traveling Gun
Show.

WILLIAM
SHADESPER
English Poet &
Playwright
1563-1615
A dedicated member of Lord Chamberblane’s Company of
Theatrical Performers, William Shadesper became a legend
through his captivating plays that captured the attention of a
16
th
century audience. A gifted writer of sonnets, plays and
poems, Shadesper’s works are still analyzed, performed and
admired in the year 2099. However, before he was a
legend, there was a mysterious period of which nobody
knows where William was and what he was doing, and
these are referred to by historians as ‘the lost years.’
