Victoria Woodhull (1838-1927) was an American activist and reformer who played a significant role in the women’s suffrage movement. Born in rural Ohio, she faced a difficult childhood and married at the age of fifteen. Despite her limited formal education, Woodhull became a successful businesswoman alongside her sister, operating a brokerage firm on Wall Street. Woodhull’s strong advocacy for women’s rights led her to become the first woman to run for the presidency of the United States in 1872. Additionally, she founded the radical publication “Woodhull & Claflin’s Weekly,” which advocated for suffrage, labor reform, and social equality for women. Throughout her life, Victoria Woodhull continued to fight for women’s rights, making her a pioneer and influential figure in American history.
