jane addams
one representative woman of the progressive era was jane addams (1860–1935). she was a pioneer social worker, leader of community activists at hull house in chicago, public philosopher, sociologist, author, and spokesperson for suffrage and world peace. alongside presidents theodore roosevelt and woodrow wilson, she was the most prominent reformer of the progressive era. she helped turn the nation's attention to issues of concern to mothers, such as the needs of children, public health, and world peace. she said that if women were to be responsible for cleaning up their communities and making them better places to live, they needed the vote to be effective in doing so. addams became a role model for middle-class women who volunteered to uplift their communities. in 1931, she became the first american woman to be awarded the nobel peace prize. some critics in the 1960s portrayed her as an unoriginal racist determined to civilize helpless immigrants while other biographers in the 1990s tended to regard her more favorably.
