Born on the 10th of November, 1916, Daphne Rye was an accomplished woman who wore many hats - director, actress, and casting director, to name a few. However, it was her passion for food and hospitality that led her to open the doors of Daphnes in 1963. The restaurant quickly gained popularity and became a favorite haunt for celebrities, with its welcoming atmosphere and delicious Mediterranean-inspired dishes. In this image, Daphne Rye, known here as Mrs. Daphne Ainley, is seen standing proudly beside the restaurant's chalkboard menu, her warm smile and inviting demeanor drawing in patrons.
