"Edna Pontellier" ; 1899 ; Kate Chopin
Fought for women before they even knew they wanted or needed to fight;
Pioneered a unique and non-traditional perspective on sexuality and self-indulgence;
Provided main-stream society with the notion women could rise above social norms;
Despite social criticisms, she has remained vibrant and relevant for over 100 years
