The 100 Most Important Women in History: Do You Agree?

I would add:

Rachel Carson, author of Silent Spring

Zora Neale Hurston. She is mentioned under the listing for Alice Walker, but I think she deserves being listed in her own right.

See: Zora Neale Hurston - Wikipedia

Dorothy Hodgkin. Won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1964.
