Philosophy: Objectivism (Ayn Rand, 1950s).
@farah the founder of the Shakers was a woman, Ann Lee
Christian Science, Mary Baker Eddy in the late 1800s.
The founder of _the Shakers_ was Ann Lee (1736–1784), also known later as “Mother Ann.”

@farah Theosophical Society co-founded by Blavatsky. Not really a great resume item but most of Theosophy belongs to her, she is who comes up in discussions about it and who most interested persons read.
