She was a fierce civil activist who was more than a little bit controversial. Then, Emily shares the story of actress Charlotte Cushman who turned to acting when her Opera career didn't pan out. She was known for playing masculine roles, one of the only acceptable forms of cross-dressing at the time, and had open relationships with women.
