Elizabeth L. Banks (1865 - 1938)
Elizabeth Banks (May 2, 1865 – July 18, 1938) was an American journalist and author. She grew up in Wisconsin, then lived in England the last forty years of her life. She became a regular contributor to English publications such as The Daily News, Punch, St James' Gazette, and London Illustrated. She created a sensation by recording her observations on the plight of the lower classes, which she researched posing as a housemaid, street sweeper, and Covent Garden flower girl. Her journalistic writing promoted women's right to vote and denounced prison conditions for jailed suffragettes.
