Phyllis McAlpin Schlafly (August 15, 1924 - September 5, 2016) was a founding member of the modern conservative movement. She was described by the New York Times as the “one of the most relentless and accomplished platform debaters of any gender to be found on any side of any issue.”[1] "I think she's probably the best political organizer we've seen in American history," stated author Rick Perlstein.[2] Her political activism spanned 70 years and it is difficult to find any position that she was ever on the wrong side of.
