186. Nellie Bly

Nellie Bly was a whirlwind in a new form of journalism - Stunt
Girl Journalism! At 23 years old she spent 10 days in the Women's
Lunatic Asylum on Blackwell's Island, exposing the mistreatment
of the marginilised in these institutions and sparking reform.
Her investigative journalism would take her around the world and
even to the Eastern Front during the Great War, but tht's only
part of her story.
