About "Lady Writer"
"Lady Writer" is a 1979 song by Dire Straits, which appears on the band's second album Communiqué. It was written by the band's lead singer, Mark Knopfler.
When asked what the song was about, Knopfler said that he was watching TV one day, and there was a lady writer on the TV. Because the song says the writer is "talking about the Virgin Mary", some have speculated that the writer in question is Marina Warner, a view shared by Warner herself.
