Nadine Gordimer
Gordimer was one of the most honored female writers of her generation. She received the Booker Prize for ''The Conservationist'', and the Central News Agency Literary Award for ''The Conservationist'', ''Burger's Daughter'' and ''July's People''.
Gordimer's writing dealt with moral and racial issues, particularly apartheid in South Africa. Under that regime, works such as ''Burger's Daughter'' were banned. She was active in the anti-apartheid movement, joining the African National Congress during the days when the organisation was banned, and gave Nelson Mandela advice on his famous 1964 defence speech at the trial which led to his conviction for life. She was also active in HIV/AIDS causes. Provided by Wikipedia
