Jane Addams This social reformer devoted her life to helping the urban poor. In 1889, she founded the Hull House in a Chicago slum, with programs such as day care and adult education. One of the first settlement houses in America, Hull House inspired many others across the nation. Although she was widely criticized for her opposition to World War I, Addams later became one of the most admired activists of the time, winning the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1931.

During her eight-day flight on the spacecraft Endeavour, she conducted several scientific experiments on how gravity affects living organisms. Being an astronaut is only one of her many accomplishments. She has also worked as a chemical engineer, a scientist, a physician, and a teacher. Recognizing the lack of diversity in the fields of science and technology, she is committed to encouraging both women and minorities to pursue careers in these areas.

Margaret Sanger As a nurse on New York's crowded and poor Lower East Side, Margaret Sanger saw firsthand how constant childbearing contributed to the cycle of poverty. In 1912, determined to correct the situation, she gave up nursing to devote herself to the promotion of birth control. Faced with laws forbidding dissemination of contraceptive information, Sanger's crusade had stiff opposition, and some of her efforts landed her in prison. But gradually the cause won acceptance. By 1921, when Sanger founded the Birth Control League, her movement had begun to win adherents in respectable quarters. There were still many years left of battling before birth control would become part of mainstream social thinking, but Sanger was indomitable. Physically, noted one observer, she was a "fragile little woman," but she had the "courage of a wounded tiger." Sanger's portraitist, Joy Buba, was trained in Germany. In addition to being a sculptor, she was a book illustrator. Joy Buba (1904-1998) Bronze, cast after 1964 original National Portrait Gallery, Smithsonian Institution;

Introduction Margaret Louise Higgins was born on September 11, 1879, in Corning, New York. The sixth of eleven children born to Anne Purcell and Michael Hennessey Higgins, Margaret grew up in a bustling household in the woods on the outskirts of town. While her mother took care of the large family, her father worked as a sculptor, chiseling headstones for local cemeteries. His work was unsteady, and with so many mouths to feed the family usually struggled to make ends meet. Though poor themselves, the Higginses believed in helping others and taught Margaret to do the same. Her father often told her: "You have no right to material comforts without giving back to society the benefits of your honest experience".

Margaret Sanger 1879 - 1966 The founder of the birth-control movement in the United States The founder of the birth-control movement in the United States was Margaret Sanger, a nurse who worked among the poor on the Lower East Side of New York City. There she witnessed firsthand the results of uncontrolled fertility, self-induced abortions, and high rates of infant and maternal mortality. Sanger claimed that, of all her experiences as a midwife and visiting nurse, the death of one of her clients from a self-induced abortion was the tramatic event that led her to focus all her energy on the single cause of reproductive autonomy for women. Sanger was born Margaret Louise Higgins in Corning, New York, on September 14, 1879. Margaret grew up in a very poor family of 11 children. She trained as a nurse at the White Plains Hospital and the Manhattan Eye and Ear Clinic in New York. She married William Sanger in 1902. Although she later divorced him she kept the last name by which she had become well known, even after she remarried in 1922. Sanger believed in a woman's right to plan the size of her family. Her work among the poor in N.Y. convinced her of the widespread need for information concerning contraception. She was outraged at the suppression of knowledge that women needed, whether their primary concern was the support of their families or the desire for greater personal freedom. Sanger's feelings of having been trapped by marriage, as well as her resentment of her mother's premature death, made the suffering of tenement mothers her own. There seemed to be no justice for these women, whose " weary misshapen bodies...were destined to be thrown on the scrap heap before they were thirty-five".

Take Action Get the Facts Tell Your Story The Latest ... The Case Margaret Sanger (1879 - 1966) Margaret Sanger was born into a world in which doctors were not allowed to give their patients information about birth control. The result for many women was frequent childbirth, miscarriage and illegal abortions. As the one of 11 children born into a poor family, Sanger experienced first hand the toll that too many pregnancies took on women. Her mother died of tuberculosis at a young age under circumstances Sanger believed resulted from the physical toll of bearing so many pregnancies. Later, married and the mother of three, Sanger began delivering babies as a maternity nurse on the Lower East Side of New York in 1910. At that time it was almost impossible for Sanger's patients to learn how to prevent pregnancy. The federal Comstock law (passed in the 1873) and "little Comstock" state laws banned contraception and abortion as forms of "obscenity." Comstock laws drove information and effective supplies underground. Although wealthy women could still purchase what they needed from Europe, poor women who resorted to illegal abortions often did not survive. Sanger's interest in sex education and safe contraceptive methods led her to Europe to learn how women there prevented pregnancy. Once back in New York, she wrote about these lifesaving measures in simple, non-clinical language. Her first tangle with censors came about because of a column she wrote on venereal disease. Undeterred, in 1914 she published articles advocating the use of contraception and was indicted by the federal government on nine separate violations of the Comstock law. With that, Sanger fled to Europe.

Sanger admitted that her activities were part-and-parcel of radical efforts calculated to upset the political, religious, and social orders of the day, and, collectively, all were intended to hasten the expected collapse of bourgeois America. As was typical of such radical agitation, most of what Sanger sought to accomplish was disingenuously cloaked beneath the mantle of humanitarianism and social justice. Clever lies, rationalized by dialectic sophistry, were always ingeniously employed to obscure the whole of the sordid truth.
