About Charlotte Perkins Gilman

Charlotte Perkins Gilman is an icon of the American feminist movement, remembered and celebrated for her groundbreaking work in women's rights. Born on July 3rd, 1860 in Hartford, Connecticut and raised by a single mother, she was determined to achieve success despite the obstacles placed before her. Gilman has written extensively on social reform from a feminist perspective, often exploring themes such as reproductive rights and economic independence for women.

Her most famous work ‘The Yellow Wallpaper’ is considered one of the earliest examples of American feminist literature. In this short story she brings attention to the mental health struggles experienced by women who were unable to pursue their dreams due to restrictive gender roles imposed upon them by society. Through this narrative she conveys her strong belief that true liberation can only be achieved through equal rights for men and women alike.
