		That place is a complex one: Bodichon was groundbreaking in her critique of the status of women in marriage and education, while her trip to the Southern States of America in 1857 brought her up against the reality of virulent racism.
		At the same time, Bodichon was at the centre of 19th century art and letters: she was, for example, George Eliot's "first friend" as well as a successful professional painter.
		The illegitimate child of a radical MP, Bodichon was an unconventional and influential leader of the Victorian women's movement, and the leading spirit in the foundation of Girton College, Cambridge.

	Barbara Leigh Smith Bodichon (1827 — 1891) Women's History Month 2003 by Sunshine for Women
		Although Barbara would eventually drift away from Unitarianism toward the conventional Church of England, the spirit of her up-bringing -- a distaste for rigid convention, a questioning mind, a staunch advocacy of social reform, a rational search for the truth, and a quest for justice -- remained with her for life.
		As with her earlier campaigns, Bodichon enlisted a critical mass of women in the project while it was still in its "rotten egg" stage — the period when advocates are liable to have rotten eggs and worse thrown at them --, then bowed out to work on a new reform activity.
		Bodichon stayed with this project longer than with the other projects, perhaps because she was no longer in good health and had to work at a slower pace.
