Annie Edson Taylor
Birth: Oct. 24, 1855
Death: Mar. 29, 1921

American Folk Figure. A teacher in Bay City, Michigan, was the first woman to go over Niagara Falls in a barrel, accomplishing this feat on her birthday in 1901. Both she and her barrel survived, but she did not profit from the stunt financially.  (bio by: Stuthehistoryguy)
