1898-1937. American aviator, born in Kansas.
In 1932 she was the first woman to fly the
Atlantic alone, and in 1937 disappeared
without trace while making a Pacific flight.
Clues found on Nikumuroro island in Kiribati
in 1989 suggest that she and her male
navigator might have survived a crash only to
die of thirst.
