1940) An emigrant to the United States known for her radical
anarchist writing and speeches, she was deported to
Russia in

Britain, where she wrote her autobiography and other works.
In New York city she met and lived with [Alexander Berkman]?, along with whom she was a major leader of the anarchist movement in the United States at the time.
