Gloria Steinem, one of the most recognizable faces of the modern feminist movement, has died in New York City at the age of 92. The legendary journalist, author, and activist helped define second-wave feminism in the 1960s and 1970s, co-founding Ms. Magazine in 1972 and using her platform to champion reproductive rights, gender equality, and social justice for decades. Steinem remained a powerful voice in public life well into her later years, continuing to speak out on issues ranging from reproductive freedom to political reform. Her death marks the loss of a defining figure in the fight for women's rights in America.
