No, she came from well-off circumstances, was a college graduate and for some reason felt obligated to gravitate towards social settlement work- battling slums, social problems, etc- eventually this expanded into an anti-war movement, and Miss Addams was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize- late in her life and career., Most of her activities were based in Chicago.
