Description: Eleanor (or Ellen) Kekoaohiwaikalani Wright Prendergast was born in Honolulu on April 12, 1865. She was educated as a Catholic at Sacred Hearts Convent, married John K. Prendergast, and was mother to two daughters and one son. She served as lady-in-waiting to Queen Liliʻuokalani and became her close friend. In her brief life (her death occurred in Honolulu on December 5, 1902), she was recognized as a haku mele (poet) of many songs, including a name song for Liliʻuokalani, "He Inoa no Liliʻuokalani" and the famed Kaulana Nā Pua.
