The Queen that worked at Macy’s

Most princess stories involve finding Prince Charming and living happily ever after as king and queen of the castle. They don’t typically include a part about the princess working at Macy’s department store, but that’s what makes this princess story so great…

Anne Antoinette Françoise Charlotte was born in Paris in 1923, the only daughter of Prince René of Bourbon-Parma and Princess Margaret of Denmark. She spent her childhood in France, but as war broke out in Europe, her family fled from the Nazis and escaped to Spain, eventually finding safe passage to the United States. Despite their ties to European royal houses, Anne’s parents weren’t especially wealthy and so, like many young students did to put themselves through school, she got herself a job as a sales assistant in the Macy’s department store at Herald Square, New York City.
