Women\u2019s History Month traces its beginnings to the first International Women’s Day, held on March 8, 1911 in Copenhagen, spearheaded by Clara Zetkin, a German political leader. In 1981, responding to the growing popularity of the event in schools across the states, Congress passed a resolution making Women’s History Week a national American holiday. It was just six years later, 1987, when Congress legally expanded the celebration to the entire month of March.<\/p>\n

Biography: Groundbreaking Women
\n
\nBiography.com’s salute to Women’s History Month is filled to the brim with biographies of groundbreaking women. “Despite all sorts of institutional obstacles, women have continued to reach stratospheric levels of success in a full gamut of professional pursuits, whether as scientists, scribes, educators, governmental leaders, athletes, designers, film directors or performers. Learn more about the plethora of triumphs obtained by our group of trailblazers.”<\/p>\n

Distinguished Women
\n
\nCell biologist Danuta Bois fulfills her desire to uncover the accomplishments of women ignored by history books with her Distinguished Women website. “This site has biographies of women who contributed to our culture in many different ways. There are writers, educators, scientists, heads of state, politicians, civil rights crusaders, artists, entertainers, and others. Some were alive hundreds of years ago and some are living today. We’ve heard of some of them, while many more have been ignored by history book writers. I’d like to acknowledge as many as I can.” <\/p>\n
