"The Atlantic Selects: The 23-Year-Old Woman Who Pioneered Investigative Journalism" [Nellie Bly] May 30, 2019 | 753 videos Video by Reveal from the Center for Investigative Reporting https://www.theatlantic.com/video/index/590464/nellie-bly/ “In my time, women usually had their life stories written for them. But I didn’t like the story I was given, so I wrote a new one.” That’s Nellie Bly, the nom de plume of Elizabeth Cochrane. The story she wrote—in a newspaper in 1887, and, figuratively, of her life—would change the course of journalism in America. “Nellie was quite simply a great risk taker,” Lane told me. “She was so very, very daring. She wanted to do something great and to have an interesting life full of adventures, and she did that independently, without the support of a wealthy family.” “Boldness goes a long way in changing the world,” Penny Lane said. “Sometimes you have to will a new world into being.”
