Judith Trim

Who was Judith Trim?

Judith Trim was an English studio potter. From 1969–1976, she was married to Roger Waters of the rock band Pink Floyd, her childhood sweetheart.

Her father was a research scientist at the University of Cambridge, but encouraged her to concentrate on art. She took A-levels in the arts and natural sciences at Cambridge's County High School for Girls, and then studied at Bath Academy of Art, Corsham. During her time with Waters, she worked as an art teacher, including a period during the mid to late 60's at Dame Alice Owen's Girls' Grammar School in Islington, North London.

She was shown on the gatefold sleeve of the original release of Pink Floyd's 1969 album Ummagumma, but was excised from subsequent CD reissues. Waters says that when he played her the finished recording of The Dark Side of the Moon, she burst into tears, which Waters saw as an indication that the work would be successful. He has admitted to infidelities during the marriage, and to his regret that they lost him his wife, and describes "the beginnings of the end of that marriage" as occurring in Greece in the summer of 1974. They had no children together.
