Women's History
Eleanor Roosevelt
American First Lady, humanitarian, and diplomat Through her humanitarian efforts in America and abroad, Roosevelt became one of the best-known and most admired women in the world.
Introduction
Anna Eleanor Roosevelt was born in New York City in 1884. She was the daughter of Elliot Roosevelt, brother of future president Theodore Roosevelt, and Anna Ludlow Hall. Her father, although loving, was an alcoholic; her mother was cold and disapproving. By the time she was eight, both of her parents had died, so she went to live with her grandmother. Awkward and shy, she was sent to finishing school in England when she was 15. Here the withdrawn Roosevelt blossomed, excelling in languages and literature and becoming popular for the first time in her life.

Women's History
Abigail Adams
American first lady Abigail Adams helped plant the seeds that would start women and men thinking about women's rights and roles in a country that had been founded on the ideals of equality and independence.
Introduction
Abigail Adams was born Abigail Smith on November 11, 1744, in Weymouth, Massachusetts, a farm community about fifteen miles southeast of Boston. Her family on both sides had lived in the colonies for several generations and was well established in the more influential circles of society. Her father, William Smith, the son of a well-to-do Boston merchant, was a Harvard graduate who served as a minister in Weymouth. Her mother, Elizabeth Quincy Smith, descended from a long line of prosperous, educated, and well-reputed New Englanders.

Helen Herron Taft
The World Book Encyclopedia, Quarrie Corporation
ArtToday.com
NAME: Helen "Nellie" Herron Taft DATE OF BIRTH: June 2, 1861 (also reported as January 2 and September 2) PLACE OF BIRTH: Cincinnati, Ohio William was currently a U.S. Judge on the Ohio Supreme Court, although Nellie felt he should aim higher. In 1890, President Harrison appointed William as U.S. Solicitor General. They moved to Washington on Dupont Circle, where they met Theodore and Edith Roosevelt. Nellie loved living in the Capitol, but it was short-lived. In 1892, Harrison was defeated for a second term and William was elected as a judge to the U.S. Circuit Court. The Tafts returned to Cincinnati. There, Nellie became involved in improving the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra. In 1899, President McKinley appointed William as Commissioner to the Philippines. William waffled on the decision, but Nellie urged him to accept. She first toured China and Japan with her children, then joined William in Manila. They lived there four years, during which time Nellie fell in love with the culture and broadened her horizons, and William was appointed as governor-general of the Philippines. When a threat of typhus fever came, Nellie had cows sent in so fresh milk would be available. She opened up the palace to everyone and insisted her family learn Spanish. At one point, William was sent to the Vatican to negotiate a transfer of church lands to the Philippine state. Nellie accompanied him and even had an audience with Pope Leo XIII.

Jane Addams
Source: Lincoln Library of Essential Information, Frontier Press Company (1924)
Name: Jane Addams Date of Birth: 1860 Place of Birth: Cedarville, Illinois Date of Death: 1935 Place of Death: Chicago, Illinois Jane Addams is remembered primarily as a founder of the Settlement House Movement. She and her friend Ellen Starr founded Hull House in the slums of Chicago in 1889. She is also remembered as the first American Woman to receive the Nobel Peace Prize. Jane is portrayed as the selfless giver of ministrations to the poor, but few realize that she was a mover and shaker in the areas of labor reform (laws that governed working conditions for children and women), and was a founder of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). Jane grew up in the small community of Cedarville, Illinois. She was the daughter of a very well-to-do gentleman; her mother was a kind and gracious lady. Jane had five brothers and sisters at the time of her mother's death, when Jane was two. Her father remarried and her new stepmother brought two new step-brothers to the already large family. Jane was especially devoted to her father. He taught her tolerance, philanthropy, and a strong work ethic. He encouraged her to pursue higher education, but not at the expense of losing her femininity and the prospect of marriage and motherhood the expectation for all upper-class young ladies at that time. Jane attended the Rockford Seminary for young ladies and excelled in her studies. She also developed strong leadership traits. Her classmates admired her and followed her examples. Jane decided that she wished to pursue a degree in medicine when she completed her studies at Rockford. This choice caused a great stir in the Addams household. Her parents felt that she had had enough education and were concerned that she would never marry. Jane became despondent. She wanted more in life. If her brothers could have careers in medicine and science, why couldn't she? Besides, she disliked household duties and the prospect of raising children held no appeal.
