Leading Lady Ruza Wenclawska, a Silent Sentinel, also known as Ruza Wenclaw, Rose Winslow, and Rose Lyons, was a Polish-American Labor Activist, Socialist, Popular Speaker, Trade Union Organizer, a member of the National Woman\u2019s Party, and a Suffragist in what was considered to be a “militant group” known as the \u201cSilent Sentinels\u201d, \u00a0who protested silently outside of the White House in Support of Women\u2019s Rights. She served a seven month prison sentence at the Occoquan Workhouse in Quantico, Virginia, during which she and others led a hunger strike that became known nation-wide. She was a published Poet and Actress.<\/p>\n

After her time spent In Occoquan, Rose focused on her passion for theatre, and even performed in Broadway theaters. Many details of Ruza\u2019s life were unknown for decades.
