Elizabeth Cady Stanton

In 1848 she helped convene the Seneca Falls Convention and drafted its Declaration of Sentiments, which called for women's suffrage and legal equality. She worked closely with Susan B.

A prolific writer and lecturer, she also authored critiques of religious doctrine, including The Woman's Bible. She died in New York City in 1902.
