Inez Milholland Boissevain (August 6, 1886 – November 25, 1916) was a suffragist, labor lawyer, World War I correspondent, and public speaker who greatly influenced the women's movement in America. She was active in the National Woman's Party and a key participant in the Woman Suffrage Parade of 1913.
Early life
Born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, Inez Milholland grew up in a wealthy family. She was the eldest daughter of John Elmer and Jean (Torrey) Milholland and had one sister, Vida, and one brother, John (Jack). Her father was a New York Tribune reporter and editorial writer who eventually headed a pneumatic tubes business that afforded his family a privileged life in both New York and London. Her father supported many reforms, among them world peace, civil rights, and women suffrage. Her mother exposed her children to cultural and intellectual stimulation.
Education
Inez Milholland received her early education at the Comstock School in New York and Kensington High School in London. After finishing school, she decided to attend Vassar but when the college wouldn't accept her graduation certificate she attended Willard School for Girls in Berlin.
It's about time we pay homage to Inez Milholland. She did more than just ride a white horse at the front of the parades.
When Inez Milholland died in Los Angeles in October, 1916, she became lionized as the “Suffrage Martyr,” the only person to die in the battle for American women’s right to vote. Wild West Women will be involved in the planning and of a centennial event to honor Inez and her untimely death at age 30. Bob Cooney, whose book on Inez is a tribute to her work, impact and inspiration will be working with us.
Inez is noted for her distinguished appearance on a white horse, leading the first great suffrage march in Washington, DC in 1913. We plan to organize a celebration of Inez in Los Angeles in 2016 and produce a documentary film on her life and influence.
