ShortBiographyCrimeDrama

Before women's liberation, before 'uppity women' were thought of as strong, before the Christian right invaded government, there was MADALYN MURRAY O'HAIR. An atheist, she took her arguments to the Supreme Court and succeeded in having prayer banned from public schools -- and that was 1963. Too irascible to be claimed by the women's movement, too confrontational for everyone else, Madalyn lived her life the way she choose -- and was murdered.
