    Extractions: CHARLOTTE PERKINS GILMAN (1860-1935) A s a prolific writer in the early 1900s often focusing on the "woman question," Charolotte Perkins Gilman influenced thousands of women through her witty and often provocative novels, studies, stories, poems and lectures. Grandniece of Harriet Beecher Stowe, Gilman grew up in a modest home in Providence, Rhode Island. A short time after she dropped out of college, Gilman married a local artist and gave birth to her first child. Soon after, she suffered from a near nervous breakdown. This experience led her to relocate to California, get a divorce, and leave her daughter in care of her ex-husband. These bold actions were practically unheard of during this time, particularly for women. In California, she was poor and turned to writing as a way of earning money. Her best known story, "The Yellow Wallpaper" is about a woman who suffers from a mental breakdown due to the birth of her child. Sounds familiar? After publishing a book of poetry, she joined the socialist Helen Campell in editing the Pacific Coast Woman's Press Association. Then she turned to lecturing: her name began to spread, and she became well known for her discussion on women's topics. With book Woman and Economics (1898), she emerged as a spokesperson on such topics as women's perspectives on work and family: she believed that men and women should share the responsibility of houseworka radical notion at the turn of the century. She also believed that women should be encouraged, from a very early age, to be independent and to work for themselves.

    Extractions: Student, University of North Carolina at Pembroke Charlotte Perkins was born July 3, 1860, in Hartford, Connecticut, to Frederick Beecher Perkins and Mary Fitch Perkins. In 1869 her father deserted the family, and she and her mother went to live with his relatives. She received very little schooling but was profoundly affected by the views of her family. Influenced by the determination and self-reliance of her great aunts Harriet Beecher Stowe, author of Uncle Tom's Cabin , Catherine Beecher, and Isabella Beecher Hooker, as well as her mother, Perkins developed her views on "feminist convictions" and the desire to see social reform, as noted in "Charlotte Perkins Gilman." At an very early age she learned to be independent and worked as a teacher to support herself. In 1878 she attended the Rhode Island School of Design and became a commercial artist. In 1884 she married Charles Walter Stetson ,who was also a artist, and they gave birth to a daughter a year later. After the birth of her daughter, Perkins suffered from depression that would haunt her the rest of her life. After divorcing Stetson in 1890, she married George Houghton Gilman in 1900. Perkins was an American feminist and social activist, as well as a writer. She decided to move to Pasadena, California, in 1888, where she wrote her most famous short story, "The Yellow Wallpaper." From 1894 to 1895 she was active in planning the California Women's Congresses, as well as founding the Women's Peace Party. She was known as a feminist writer who expressed her views and beliefs in her novels, short stories, and nonfiction works. Most of her writings were based on her own experiences that she faced from divorce to depression. In 1898 she published her best known nonfiction work

    Extractions: Shane Hamilton, Web Editor Gilman, Charlotte Perkins Feminist author, lecturer (1860-1935) Born to a cultured family whose New England heritage dated back several generations, Charlotte Perkins nonetheless grew up poor and rootless. Her father abandoned the family soon after her birth and provided little support, leaving her mother to drift in search of work and charity. As a young adult, Perkins supported herself as an artist and teacher. Married at 23, she found domestic life unbearable and suffered a serious nervous breakdown. She gradually recovered, though elements of mental illness lingered throughout her life. Perkins soon settled into an independent career as lecturer and author which continued well into her 60s, foreswearing traditional feminine roles in her own life while criticizing them in her writing. She committed suicide in 1935, following her second husband's death and her own diagnosis with breast cancer.

Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860-1935): Her life and work as a social scientist and feminist. by Mary Beekman In order to understand Charlotte Perkins Gilman as writer and intellectual, we must first know something of her personal life. For, although Gilman tried to keep the two personae separate in her own lifetime, we inevitably see conflict in the reality of her experience. For example, in creating her autobiography The Living of Charlotte Perkins Gilman , Gilman painted a public image she felt women should emulate while the diaries she left behind reveal the frailties of common human existence (Hill, 1980, p. 6-7). (Biographical information compiled from: Kessler, Carol Farley (1995). Charlotte Perkins Gilman: Her progress toward Utopia with selected writings . Syracuse: Syracuse University Press. pages 14-40). Charlotte Perkins was born on July 3, 1860 to Frederick Beecher Perkins and Mary A. Fitch. It is with her parents that these dueling personae began to take shape as each was from a prominent Rhode Island family with conflicting worldviews. Frederick sprung from the Beecher family, one well known for its radicals including Isabella Beecher Hooker, a famous suffragist and Harriet Beecher Stowe, an abolitionist and the renowned author of

To develop human life in its true powers we need fully equal citizenship for women." Introduction Charlotte Perkins Gilman was a prominent social activist and leading theorist of the women's movement at the turn of the twentieth century. She examined the role of women in society and put forth her social theories in Women and Economics and other nonfiction books, while she developed her feminist ideals in her novels and short stories. Gilman is best known today for her short story "The Yellow Wallpaper," in which she portrayed a young woman's mental breakdown based on her own experience. Believing society could be changed for the better for women through the use of reason, she wrote books to advance her ideas. Family deserted by father Uncle Tom's Cabin;
