What happened
The outlets' own sentences, most widely reported first. Hover or tap one to see who reported it.
During the 1960s and 70s, Morgan embodied and inspired historic changes in how women lived and thought.
As she was happy to point out, the one-time “ideal American girl” and adored “little Robin Morgan” was a rule breaker and justice seeker with a notable list of achievements, along with a prison record and an FBI file.

Her poem Arraignment helped capture the movement’s embrace of the late Sylvia Plath and condemnation of her husband, poet Ted Hughes, whom Morgan and others blamed for Plath’s suicide in 1963.
