Rose Schneiderman (1882–1972) was an important labor leader, feminist, and socialist. A Polish immigrant, she was elected in 1904 as the first woman member of a major national union, in this case the International Ladies Garment Makers Union. Schneiderman also championed women’s suffrage, and cultivated a friendship with Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt, which resulted in a presidential appointment to the National Labor Advisory Board.  She is remembered for her saying that “The worker must have bread, but she must have roses, too” and for fighting for workers’ rights and benefits.
