Frances Willard lived from 1839-1898. She was very active in America's women's suffrage movement, trying to get women the right to vote and expanding their opportunities in society. But she is best known for her work in the temperance movement: she was the founder of the WCTU (Women's Christian Temperance Union), an organization whose main goal was to ban alcohol. It was her belief that drinking was the cause of most of the social problems in the United States, and her organization actively campaigned to close saloons (as bars used to be called) and to make it illegal to drink alcoholic beverages. She was a major influence in the ultimate passage of the 18th Amendment to the Constitution, making alcohol illegal-- the so-called Prohibition amendment.
