Sarah H. (Sarah Hopkins) Bradford
Sarah Hopkins Bradford (1818–1912) was an American writer and biographer, best known for her works documenting the life of Harriet Tubman. She authored two influential biographies of Tubman: "Scenes in the Life of Harriet Tubman" (1869) and "Harriet, the Moses of Her People" (1886), which played a crucial role in preserving Tubman's legacy. Bradford's work helped raise funds to support Tubman in her later years, as she used the proceeds from her books to aid Tubman's financial struggles. Her writings contributed to public awareness of Tubman's heroic efforts in the Underground Railroad and the Civil War.
