Alice Chenoweth, after her affair scandal, reinvented herself as Helen Hamilton Gardener and became a prominent advocate for women's rights. She authored seven books and numerous essays, engaging with influential thinkers of her time. Known for her bold ideas and sharp wit, Gardener challenged societal norms, opposing piety and temperance. Her dedication to the women's suffrage movement in Washington, D.C., was pivotal, with colleagues recognizing her efforts as crucial to the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment.
