| Summary: | The life and writings of Bertha von Suttner (1843-1914), an impoverished daughter of Austrian nobility who was forced to make her living as a governess to the wealthy Suttner family. She eloped with the youngest Suttner brother; tried her hand at writing; became internationally famous upon publishing "Lay down your arms" (written to promote the peace movement), was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, and worked on as a journalist and lecturer in the cause of peace, before passing away shortly before the start of World War I.
