Gilman was born on July 3, 1860, in Hartford, Connecticut, to Mary Perkins (formerly Mary Fitch Westcott) and Frederic Beecher Perkins. Her best remembered work today is her semi-autobiographical short story " The Yellow Wallpaper", which she wrote after a severe bout of postpartum psychosis. She has been inducted into the National Women's Hall of Fame.
She was a utopian feminist and served as a role model for future generations of feminists because of her unorthodox concepts and lifestyle. Charlotte Perkins Gilman ( / ˈ ɡ ɪ l m ən/ née Perkins J– August 17, 1935), also known by her first married name Charlotte Perkins Stetson, was an American humanist, novelist, writer, lecturer, advocate for social reform, and eugenicist.
