The Vienna psychiatrist developed a theory of the unconscious mind, where the id, ego, and superego struggle to balance each other out in the human psyche.

Freud attributed his patients' neuroses to childhood trauma, often cloaked in a sexual conflict. His work was at first deemed perverted, but his ideas started to spread after a series of lectures in the U. S. in 1. 90. 9. After Freud's death in 1. Freudian theory was hailed as genius in mainstream culture. But beginning in the 1. Freud's theories started to fall out of favor in academia and are largely discredited today.

Fred Astaire began dancing when he was just four years old. Soon he and his sister Adele were in a performing arts school and started dancing professionally. First came vaudeville, then Broadway, and when Adele married, Fred headed to Hollywood.

Producers were at first reluctant to cast Astaire as a leading man because of his looks, but his dancing soon won them over. Astaire appeared in dozens of films between 1.

Ginger Rogers. Although his later films did not revolve around dance numbers, Astaire was seen dancing in an episode of Battlestar Galactica as late as 1. MARTHA GRAHAM: MAY 1. Getty Images.

Over time, she came to be seen as a genius of the genre. Graham danced until she was in her '7. KATHARINE HEPBURN: MAY 1. Getty Images. Getty Images. Katharine Hepburn caught the acting bug in college and headed to the stages of New York upon graduation.

She was spotted in a Broadway production and was offered the lead in RKO's 1. A Bill of Divorcement. That kicked off a movie career of more than 6. Academy Awards and won four. Hepburn was a certified box office draw, but off screen she refused to behave like a Hollywood star. She spoke her mind, wore pants, and even appeared in public without makeup occasionally.

Hepburn was also known for her devotion to the love of her life, actor Spencer Tracy, who was separated from his wife but refused to divorce her. The last of nine films they made together was Guess Who's Coming to Dinner in 1. Tracy died. Hepburn continued making movies through 1.

PIERRE CURIE: MAY 1. Getty Images. Getty Images. French physicist Pierre Curie is often overlooked in favor of Marie Curie, his brilliant student and later wife. Together they discovered radium and polonium, and did extensive research into radioactivity.

Renowned American painter Mary Cassatt wanted to become an artist, but her parents objected and her Philadelphia art school didn't take women students seriously. So she went to Paris and studied privately under teachers from Ecole des Beaux- Arts, as the school did not admit women. Gradually, Cassatt's works sold and her reputation grew. She drew the attention of Impressionist Edgar Degas, and worked with him for years. By 1. 88. 6, she left the Impressionist movement behind, and afterward refused to be defined by any art genre.

Cassatt's body of work often featured women and children in their everyday lives. Her most memorable painting, Little Girl in a Blue Armchair, broke with tradition by portraying a child in a naturalistic, casual pose instead of a formal portrait. SIR ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE: MAY 2.

Arthur Conan Doyle is best remembered for his many short stories and novels featuring the detective Sherlock Holmes.

Woman versus Women," in which Fuller argued that men and women must see each other as equals before they can transcend to divine love. Fuller reasoned that ignoring our commonality was the base of much of America's sins, from the slaughter of Native Americans to the slavery of African Americans.

Fuller went on to become a foreign correspondent and the first American female war correspondent, covering the Italian revolution. She also fell in love with an Italian man and had a child with him.

On their return trip to the U. S. in 1. 85. 0 aboard a merchant ship, a hurricane struck the ship near Fire Island, killing all three. Only Fuller's 2. 0- month- old son was found.
