1401．Marian Wright Edelman，an American lawyer，educator and children's rights activist，was born on June 6，1939 in South Carolina，one of five children.Her father Arthur Wright was a preacher（牧师） who died when she was only 14 years old In his last words to her，he advised her not to "let anything get in the way of your education."
After high schools Edelman went on to study at Spelman College and later traveled to the Soviet Union.When she returned to Spelman in 1959，Edelman became involved in the civil rights movement.This work inspired her to drop her plans to enter the Foreign Service and study law instead In 1973，Edelman set up the Children's Defense Fund as a voice for poor and disabled children.She served as a public speaker on behalf of these children.
During a tour，Marian met Peter Edelman，an assistant to Kennedy，and the next year she moved to Washington，D.C.to marry him and to work for social justice in the center of America's political scene.The couple had three sons：Joshua，Jonah and Ezra.Jonah is the founder of Stand for Children，a group that promotes children's education，and Ezra is a documentary（纪录片） filmmaker who won an Emmy for his film "O.J.：Made in America. "
Edelman is the author of many books for children and adults.Her titles for readers include I'm Your child，God：Prayers for Our Children，Guide My Feet：Prayers and Meditations for Our Children，Lanterns：A Memoir of Mentors，and The Measure of Our Success：A Letter to My Children and Yours，which was a surprising success.
