Laura Ingalls Wilder, author of the Little House on the Prairie Books.

She's one of the most important American children's authors of the 20th century.

Inspiration for a hit television show.

Women will come up to me crying saying,

Little House on the Prairie was my escape.

As a kid, I idolized Laura.

And last summer, I went on the road in search of the real Laura.

What I found is a complicated person alongside the complicated country she represents.

I'm Glinnis McNickel, and this is Wilder.

What do a flirtatious gambling double agent in World War II?

An opera singer who burned down an honorary to Kidnap her lover.

And a pirate queen who walked free with all of her spoils, have in common.

They're all real women who were left out of your history books.
