Susan B. Anthony may be an international icon but her campaign for womens rights had personal roots. Working as a school teacher in New York, Anthony refused to settle for less pay than her male colleagues which ignited her lifelong devotion to womens equality. Anthony toured the United States and Europe giving speeches and publishing articles as one of the most important advocates of womens rights.
