Nadezhda Krupskaya was a Russian revolutionary and feminist. She was born in 1869 in a progressive family. She met Vladimir Lenin in 1894 and was exiled to Siberia with him in 1896, where they married. In 1903, she moved to Geneva in Switzerland and worked as an editor for Iskra. After the Great October Socialist Revolution, she worked on the People's Commissariat for Education. She established education programs for adults, which provided 30,000 classes to workers and peasants in the Soviet Union.[1]
