Mrs B: A Handsworth Life
By Peter Grego
2025
Mrs B: A Handsworth Life, is a solo exhibition at the National Trust, Birmingham Back to Backs Museum.
Anita Eutedra Bartley, Mrs B, was born in St Catherine, Jamaica, in March 1929. She arrived at Heathrow in February 1956, travelling to join her husband John in Handsworth, Birmingham.
The exhibition presents two films and three individual installations that explore her life; a life in many ways typical of those of the Windrush generation.
