Another great obituary:
<
https://www.nytimes.com/2013/01/02/world/asia/beate-gordon-feminist-heroine-in-japan-dies-at-89.html>
"Beate Sirota Gordon, the daughter of Russian Jewish parents who at 22
almost single-handedly wrote women’s rights into the Constitution of
modern Japan, and then kept silent about it for decades, only to become
a feminist heroine there in recent years, died on Sunday at her home in
Manhattan. She was 89."
