Description
Jane Addams was born on September 6, 1860 in Cedarville, Illinois. She was a social worker, reformer, and philosopher who cofounded Hull House in Chicago. Hull House was America’s first settlement house which provided an impressive array of social programs for poor families.
Addams campaigned tirelessly on local, national, and international issues ranging from poverty to women’s suffrage to world peace. She founded the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom in 1919, attempting for many years to convince the world’s powers to disarm and commit to peace. Addams was the first American woman to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
