Marjory Stoneman Douglas was a pioneering conservationist who dedicated her life to protecting the Everglades. Her story is an inspiring tale of courage, determination, and the importance of fighting for what you believe in.

Douglas was born in 1890 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. She moved to Florida with her family when she was a child, and she quickly fell in love with the state's natural beauty. In the 1920s, Douglas began writing a series of articles about the Everglades for the Miami Herald. Her articles helped to raise awareness of the Everglades and the threats it faced from development and pollution.

In 1947, Douglas published her book, The Everglades: River of Grass. The book was a bestseller, and it helped to solidify Douglas's reputation as a leading voice in the conservation movement. Douglas continued to write and speak out in defense of the Everglades for the rest of her life. She died in 1998 at the age of 108.
