Elizabeth Cady Stanton: An American Life Untidy Origins by Lori Ginzberg Recognizing the centennial of women’s suffrage in New York State, Lori Ginzberg, Professor of History and Women’s Studies at Penn State University, discusses her recent book, Elizabeth Cady Stanton: An American Life. Known as a social activist and American suffragist, Elizabeth Cady Stanton [1815-1902] was a prominent figure in the early women’s rights effort. Her story, however, is not entirely heroic. Like all leaders, Stanton was a complex figure, whose absolutism about “woman’s rights” contained a racist and elitist stand that continues to shape her legacy.
