Margaret Fuller, born on this day in 1810, was an American feminist journalist associated with the American transcendentalism movement. Her work "Woman in the Nineteenth Century" was one of the first major feminist works in the U.S.

Fuller also worked as an editor, translator, critic, and journalist. She became the first American female war correspondent, writing for Horace Greeley's New-York Tribune.

Fuller's book "Woman in the Nineteenth Century" is considered the first major feminist work in the United States, and later feminists like Susan B. Anthony cited her as an inspiration. Fuller was also an advocate of abolishing slavery and prison reform.

"Male and female represent the two sides of the great radical dualism. But in fact they are perpetually passing into one another. Fluid hardens to solid, solid rushes to fluid. There is no wholly masculine man, no purely feminine woman."
