Clare Booth Luce



Born in 1903, and despite constantly moving because of her father's (often poorly paid) careers, Luce was an intelligent child and received good schooling.  Not only did she work in the suffrage movement, but she also was an editor, playwright, politician, journalist, and diplomat.  She ended up leaving the Women's Lobby in 1978, however, because of their support for abortion.  Tragedy struck when her nineteen-year-old daughter was killed in an automobile accident; she found solace in Catholicism and later returned to her busy career as a multi-talented woman. Luce is most famous for her plays The Women and Margin For Error, for her journalism during WWII, and for her appointments as a foreign and domestic diplomat.  She passed away in 1987.

Part seven of my series entitled Pro-Life Fanatics. The purpose of this little project is to showcase feminists, humanitarians, and other trail blazers who held/hold Pro-Life convictions; this is done to do away with the stereotype of the fanatic, ill-educated Pro-Lifer that many people hold against the Pro-Life movement.
