Betty Friedan (February 4, 1921 – February 4, 2006) was an influential American writer, activist, and feminist, best known for her role in sparking the second wave of feminism in the United States. Her landmark book, 'The Feminine Mystique' (1963), challenged traditional gender roles and highlighted women's dissatisfaction with their limited domestic roles. Friedan co-founded the National Organization for Women (NOW) in 1966 and served as its first president. She organized the 1970 Women's Strike for Equality and was a strong advocate for women's rights, including the proposed Equal Rights Amendment. Friedan continued to write and speak on feminist issues throughout her life.
