Ida C. Craddock (August 1, 1857 – October 16, 1902) was a 19th-century American advocate of free speech and women's rights.[1] She wrote extensively on sexuality, which led to her conviction and imprisonment for obscenity.[2] Facing further legal proceedings after her release, she committed suicide.
