Peace Pilgrim.
From 1953 to 1981 a silver haired woman calling herself only "Peace Pilgrim" walked more than 25,000 miles on a personal pilgrimage for peace. She vowed to "remain a wanderer until mankind has learned the way of peace, walking until given shelter and fasting until given food." In the course of her 28 year pilgrimage she touched the hearts, minds, and lives of thousands of individuals all across North America.
Here is a website dedicated to her.

If I were to choose the greatest of the peace activists it would be Mohandis Ghandi, also called Mahatma Gandhi. No one in history has (outiside of Jesus the Christ) been a greater model of how a peace activist should behave.

I'm presuming you want to write something positive. Maybe you should repost your question in the fiction area.
