Lydia Maria Francis Child

Ses romans, pamphlets et écrits pour enfants se concentraient souvent sur la défense des esclaves, des femmes et des Amérindiens. Child se caractérisait par un fort sens de la justice sociale, fusionnant la création littéraire avec l'activisme. Son écriture est considérée comme une contribution importante au discours sur l'égalité et l'humanité de son époque.
