Born on May 3, 1898, Meir was an influential stateswoman and politician in Israel. She was a key figure in the early history of the State of Israel and served as its Prime Minister from 1969 to 1974. She was known for her strong leadership, dedication to the Zionist cause, and her contributions to Israel's development as a nation. She is remembered by many as the Iron Lady of Israel. Golda passedaway on 8 December1978.
Born in Kyiv, Ukraine (then part of Imperial Russia), she immigrated with her family to the United States in 1906, settling in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. She was actively involved in Zionist activities from a young age, and her passion for the establishment of a Jewish homeland in Palestine led her to move to what was then British-controlled Palestine in 1921.
