Robin Morgan, Poet and Second-Wave Feminist Leader, Dies at 85
Robin Morgan, a former child star turned influential poet and second-wave feminist, died at 85 in New York after recent health issues, her son said. A key figure in the 1960s and 1970s women's movement, she helped organize the 1968 Miss America protest and edited the seminal 1970 anthology "Sisterhood is Powerful." Morgan was credited with coining "herstory" and popularizing feminist symbols. She remained active in writing and activism until her death, which followed that of her close friend Gloria Steinem.
