Who is Charlotte Perkins Gilman??!!

Charlotte Perkins Gilman is one of those writers whose reputations have changed over time, and she has sometimes dropped out of view entirely. Internationally known during her lifetime (1860–1935) as a feminist, a socialist, and the author of Women and Economics (1898)—an instant classic—she was less well recognized for her prodigious literary output.The writer was born on July 3, 1860, in Hartford, Connecticut. She published her best-known short story "The Yellow Wall-Paper" in 1892.  Along with writing books, she established a magazine, The Forerunner, which was published from 1909 to 1916. Gilman committed suicide on August 17, 1935, in Pasadena, California.After her death, Gilman dropped out of the public consciousness for several decades. Then, when 1970s feminists discovered her, they tended to read her fiction more than her nonfiction. Her short story “The Yellow Wallpaper,” about a woman confined to her bedroom, hallucinating as she stares at the patterns on the wall, became especially popular, as did Herland (1915) and her other utopian novels.
Gilman is still known more for “The Yellow Wallpaper” than any other work, but contemporary scholars are taking another look at her, this time in a context that includes all her writing.
