Charlotte Perkins Gilman
Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860-1935) was a pioneering American feminist and the author of dramas, dialogues, poetry, nearly two hundred short stories and several novels. Her nonfiction work covered the subjects of economics, education, religion, women's rights, and much more.
She is best known for the fantastic utopian novel Herland and for the germinal short story "The Yellow Wallpaper", which only form a minuscule sample of her work, but feminist efforts have brought some of her other writings back into print.
