Robin Morgan (January 29, 1941 – September 5, 2026) was an American activist, poet, writer, journalist, lecturer, and one-time child actor. From the early 1960s onward, she was a radical feminist member of the American women's movement and a leader in the international feminist movement. Her 1970 anthology Sisterhood Is Powerful was cited by the New York Public Library as "One of the 100 Most Influential Books of the 20th Century". She wrote more than 20 books of poetry, fiction, and nonfiction, and was the editor of Ms. magazine.
During the 1960s, Morgan participated in the civil rights and anti-Vietnam War movements; in the late 1960s, she was a founding member of radical feminist organizations such as New York Radical Women and W.I.T.C.H. She founded or co-founded the Feminist Women's Health Network, the National Battered Women's Refuge Network, Media Women, the National Network of Rape Crisis Centers, the Feminist Writers' Guild, the Women's Foreign Policy Council, the National Museum of Women in the Arts, the Sisterhood Is Global Institute, GlobalSister.org, and Greenstone Women's Radio Network. She also co-founded the Women's Media Center with journalist and social movement activist Gloria Steinem and actress, author, and activist Jane Fonda. In 2018, she was listed as one of BBC's 100 Women.
