Learn more about two successful women writers honored by The National Women's History Project this year.

Biographical information of Walker, founder of the Third Wave Direct Action Corporation, which is now the Third Wave Foundation, an organization empowering young women to be at the forefront of social change movements. As an author she gave voice to the struggle for self-identity of children of mixed cultural backgrounds.
Named by Time Magazine as one of the fifty future leaders of America, Rebecca Walker is an important younger voice calling for social change and personal transformation. An author and activist, Ms. Walker publishes widely and is the co-founder of the Third Wave Foundation, the only national, activist, philanthropic organization for young women aged 15-30.

Biographical information on "one of the most versatile broadcast journalist of our time, her ground-breaking and award-winning work in the field of sports commentary challenged long held assumptions about the authenticity of women as sports broadcasters.
The pioneering work of Robin Roberts has proven that in the world of sports broadcasting, knowledge, experience, and talent are no longer male domains. Now, as the news anchor on ABC's Good Morning America, Roberts continues to demonstrate the same grace and ease she used giving a play-by-play commentary or interviewing the President of the United States. Her intelligence and manner engage the viewer's attention and involvement."

Theme incorporates both pioneering women from U.S. history, who led and won struggles for equality and civil rights, created and advanced educational and professional opportunities, and made great contributions to the arts, sciences, and humanistic causes, and innovative women of today who further these efforts and continue to expand the frontiers of possibility for generations to come.
