March is WomansHistory Month.. what woman in your life or in history has most inspired you?

Answer 1

There are many such individuals and looking only at those outside of my family I can narrow this to two.

Lou Henry Hoover. She is one of the most intelligent First Ladies and one who became a proactive citizen of the world. Among many other achievements she was the one who began the desegregation of the White House.

There is also Ayn Rand who has likely impacted more people in terms of individual freedoms than anyone else in modern times.

Much more on these individuals came be found at the source Links:

Answer 2

The women in history who most inspired me were : Mary Ann Ball "Mother" Bickerdyke, Emma Goldman, Mary Henrietta Kingsley, Rosa Luxemburg, Florence Nightingale, and Barbara Tuchman.

Answer 3

I admire former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, Eleanor Roosevelt, Amelia Earhart and Jane Goodall.

Answer 4

Emilia Earhart

Answer 5

I would definetely say Oprah Winfrey! =D
She is a strong woman. What she started out with, poverty, getting to know her grandma, then her mom, getting molested, running away from home, her extremely strict father who did help her......................................................
and now look where she is! Not only a wonderful talkshow host but she helps other people esp. girls in South Africa and other places get their chance and opportunity to study and have a career someday. Unlike many celebrites who adopt babies from Third-world countries as a new trend, she knows what other girls are going through because she has endured so much at such an early age.
