1 Jenny Wren?
2 Shirley Temple??
3 Anne Hathaway
4 Helen of Troy (launched a thousand ships)

[Pentalpha8]

1 Jenny Lind

[dundurn]

Jenny Lind was known as the Swedish Nightingale and she was a real character as opposed to the fictional Jenny Wren, so I'd go with Pentalpha8's answer. The reason I put two ?? against Shirley Temple Black is that I know she was an ambassador on a couple of occasions but I don;t think she ever succeeded in being elected to the Senate.
