Political Figure Activist. Name at birth: Victoria Claflin. Victorial Claflin Woodhull was a controversial activist, socialite, and political figure of the 19th century. She is best remembered now as the first woman to run for president of the United States.
Victoria Woodhull was a fearless lobbyist, businesswoman, writer and investor who advocated for a womanâs equal status in the workplace, political arena, church and family. Victoria Woodhull was in some ways like the Susan B. Anthonys and Elizabeth Cady Stantons of her time. Like them, she advocated for the full education of daughters, foregoing the 19th century belief that daughters, mothers and wives should be silent âangels of the houseâ submissively catering to menâs needs.
