Isabelle Eberhardt (1877–1904), raised by a nihilist and anarchist, was a cross-dressing sufi and writer who traveled and wrote extensively throughout northern Africa before dying suddenly in a flash flood at the age of 27. She was accused of assisting indigenous resistance to French occupation, and generally had many strange adventures. She wrote short stories, journalism, and journal entries, most of which survive. Although she became more invested in sufism and Islam than in anarchism proper, I feel it is safe to consider her the anarchist she was raised to be.

He comes from the 1970s punk scene and he edited and ran a zine for years before working for Spin. In an interview with 3 A.M. Magazine in in 2001, he said, “I’m an anarchist, by philosophy. I believe everyone has everything they need within themselves to make the right decisions.”
