Ida Rauh 1877-1970 born into a wealthy family was a trailblazer who rebelled against her upper-class upbringing and who had a great impact on American theater and the struggle for women's rights. After graduating from New York University in 1902 with a law degree she settled in Greenwich Village and began advocating for causes such as women's voting rights the promotion of birth control and the espousal of socialist doctrine. She married Max Eastman and together they heavily influenced the birth of modern theater and the early twentieth-century underground press through the Provincetown Players and the publication The Masses. During this time Rauh also made major contributions to the organization of women’s trade unions and related strike activities.
