Elizabeth Garrett Anderson was the first British woman to become a doctor. At the time, women were banned from the medical profession as it was felt that that training would be too taxing, and that it was inappropriate for them to be dissecting corpses. Elizabeth not only found her way through loopholes, she then founded teaching hospitals for other women. You can read more about her in my eBook.
