Libby Beaman
Elizabeth Beaman (1844-1934), also known by her maiden name Elizabeth Gertrude DuBois, was the first non-Aleut woman to go to the Pribilof Islands off the coast of Alaska. She was a naturalist, artist, mapmaker, and writer. Her year spent in Alaska produced a diary in which she wrote about her experiences during seal season. Not much is known of Beaman's later life, but her contributions to documenting her time in Alaska has established her as a woman who overcame societal norms and expectations.
