About the author
Born in Jamestown, North Dakota, in 1890, Alma Lutz became involved in the woman suffrage movement after graduating from Vassar College in 1912. She remained active in campaigns for equal rights throughout her life and built a reputation as both an organizer and a writer.
She is especially remembered for biographies of important figures in the women’s rights movement, including Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony. Her books and articles helped document the struggles, ideas, and personalities behind the long campaign for women’s political equality.
Lutz died in 1973, but her work remains valuable for readers interested in the history of feminism and reform movements in the United States. She wrote with the conviction of someone who saw history not as a distant subject, but as a living cause.
