Dear All,
I have finally scrubbed up my biographical article about an amazing woman I found working hard in a back room of history - enough to bring its subject to the wider world (that is, onto Wikipedia). The article is timed to appear later today on the front page of the English Wikipedia ("Did You Know" section) to coincide with the first day of Ada Camp in Washington D.C.
I feel as if I am taking her by the hand and bringing her out into the room where the party is now. My work about her is a drop in the ocean compared with her work on behalf of women all over the world and only a small effort compared with the work many of you do. Nevertheless, I would like to introduce her to you because I think she would really have liked this list. I admire her gumption and optimism. So may I present, the globe-trotting and indefatigable, Jessie Ackermann (1857–1951) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jessie_Ackermann
