It's unfortunate how all of these snipers and pirates and poo poo never had kids. Warring and marauding appears to be a less rewarding profession for the fairer sex, I'm afraid to say

Anne Bonney was spared from hanging for piracy because she was pregnant by Jack Rackham. The other female pirate on the ship, Mary Reed, was also spared because she too was pregnant with Rackham's child, but she died in jail. Anne was the illegitimate daughter of a prominent attorney. He bailed her out of jail and took her and her baby home.

Bebe Barron! She was the first electronic composer, invented books on tape and the tape loop method , and recorded the first electronic film score for Forbidden Planet. She was a studio producer on multiple hugely important records by guys like Harry Partch and Raymond Scott too.

One of Shirley Clarke's experimental films was scored by Bebe and Louis Barron:

Also, Shirley Clarke was a groundbreaking filmmaker. She made Portrait of Jason, which is one of the greatest documentaries ever made.

Dorothea Dix transformed nursing from a historically male profession to one dominated by, and culturally associated with, women. These days you're often looked down upon if you're a male nurse for some reason.

She then went on to contribute to the founding of a poo poo ton of mental asylums after the Civil War. While there was a huge need for psychiatric care after the war, such facilities were generally lovely Places to Be for nearly a century afterwards. So she could have done better there imo

Leni Riefenstahl started as a leading lady in the silent era, then got to direct her first film in 1932 - The Blue Light. She also starred in it, as well as co-wrote and produced it.

She went on to produce a few documentary films for the Nazi party, including Triumph of the Will. The IOCC commissioned her to make an epic documentary on the 1936 Olympic Games, Olympia, which took two years to edit. After the war, she was thought to be a Nazi collaborator, but was let off fairly easy. There's varied accounts of her involvement, though she didn't produce anything for the Nazis after 1935.

Most of her remaining years were spent photographing the world and she made her last film in 2002 when she was 100 years old, which was an underwater life documentary.

Ada Lovelace. You probably know her as the "OMG the first computer programmer was a lady!!!" blurb you saw on a Facebook post at one point, and that is true... but the whole story is much more interesting.

See Ada's dad was famous too- she was the daughter of Lord Byron, the great English poet. He abandoned his family to go fight in the Greek war of independence and as a result his ex got reeeeeally vindictive and decided her daughter would never ever learn about that bullshit art and culture crap Lord Deadbeat was all about. So the kid had math ground into her head from day one and the rest is history.

So yeah, whenever you run a computer program, remember where the whole idea originated: men abandoning their responsibilities and women holding grudges. History is fun!

She was also the namesake for Hillary's campaign data program. The one that didn't see a need to go to Wisconsin

Maybe this guy that flies is just sort of passing through, you know?



Aileen Wuornos was born to teenage parents in Rochester, Michigan in 1956, and her life was tumultuous from the very beginning. The future serial killer never met her father, a convict who hanged himself in a prison cell when Wuornos was 12. Her mother abandoned Wuornos and her younger brother, and they wound up being raised by their grandparents. Wuornos was sexually abused by her grandfather at a young age, and she became pregnant at the age of 14 after being raped by one of her grandfather’s friends. Wuornos gave birth, and the baby was put up for adoption.

When she was only 15 years old, Wuornos’ grandfather threw her out of his house, and she was forced to fend for herself. She lived in the woods, and, as she had no other way to make money, she started working as a prostitute. She hitchhiked around the country, ending up in Florida where she was briefly married to a wealthy man almost 50 years her senior. After her divorce, Wuornos had many run-ins with the law. She was arrested in Michigan for drunk driving, and spent over a year in a Florida prison for armed robbery before she was paroled in 1983.

The next few years found Wuornos working as a prostitute around Florida, where she regularly ran into trouble with law enforcement. Then, in the late 1980s, she met and fell in love with a woman named Tyria Moore. Though Wuornos and Moore moved in together, Wuornos continued to work as a prostitute. In 1989, the rage that had dwelled within Aileen Wuornos since she was a young girl exploded, and she began to kill.

Her first murder occurred in November 1989 in Clearwater, Florida. Wuornos claimed that she shot and killed 51-year-old Richard Mallory in self-defense after he attacked her – but it was a claim she later recanted. From June to November in 1990, Wuornos shot and killed an additional six men in different parts of Florida. On January 9, 1991, Wuornos was arrested at a bar in Port Orange, Florida after police discovered her and Tyria Moore’s fingerprints in a crashed car belonging to one of the men Wuornos had killed. The following day, Tyria Moore was apprehended in Pennsylvania. Moore cooperated with police and agreed to get Wuornos to confess to the murders during a phone call. Wuornos admitted to the murders, but insisted she had killed all of the men in self-defense.

In January 1992, Aileen Wuornos stood trial for the murder of Richard Mallory. A jury found her guilty, and she was sentenced to death. Later, Wuornos stood trial for her other murders, and she was given additional death sentences by the state of Florida. Mental evaluations conducted on Wuornos showed that she was extremely unstable: she had borderline personality disorder and antisocial personality disorder, no doubt due in part to the traumatic incidents she had experienced since she was a young girl.

In 2001, Wuornos fired her lawyers and wrote a letter to the Florida Supreme Court arguing she wanted to abandon the appeals process. In the letter, she said, “I killed those men, robbed them cold as ice. And I’d do it again, too. There’s no chance of keeping me alive or anything, because I’d kill again.” Wuornos added, “I’m competent, sane, and I’m trying to tell the truth. I’m one who seriously hates human life and would kill again.”

Wuornos spent more than 10 years on Death Row, until she was executed by lethal injection on October 9, 2002.
