Linda Anne Lawrence (also called Linda Leitch; born Windsor 1947)[2] is the British wife, muse[3] and sometimes collaborator of folk-rock star Donovan (Donovan Phillips Leitch). Donovan wrote his US #1/UK #2[4] hit song "Sunshine Superman" for her[5][6] as well as "Legend of a Girl Child Linda". And according to Donovan, "Linda's in all the songs. 'Sunshine Superman,' 'Hampstead Incident,' 'Young Girl Blues'... Linda's the muse."[7]
