On today's date, labor organizer and founding member of both the NAACP and the Women's Trade Union League Leonora O'Reilly (1870-1927) was born today, along with actress Katharine Cornell (1898-1974)! Also today in 1980, "Mary Decker breaks the indoor mile world record finishing race in 4:17:55." (Thanks to NWHP for that info.)
