Eleanor Roosevelt was a fantastically accomplished woman who
represented her country at the United Nations and fought for the
rights of women, minorities and refugees on the American and
world stage. For all that, she is probably still best remembered
as the longest serving First Lady of the United States. She
accomplished many of her greatest achievements after her
husband passed away, but the bias towards putting men in the
spotlight persists from her time into ours.
