I do admire a lot of older women who are not well known, but I  can't thnk of anyone alive today that fits the "well known" category.  

[MarieIG]

Sandra Day O'Connor

Condoleezza Rice

Mother Theresa

Golda Meir

Barbara Bush

Sr. Jean Kevin (my ninth grade teacher who had a great sense of fun, and made history come alive). 

My Mom, who before she was married supported her parents, and was a Wave in WWII.

My grandmother, who emigrated to this Country at age 13 by herself, to send money home to support her family.

My great aunt, who had to flee the land of her birth due to a genocide that took a number of her family, and later lived through WWII in an occupied country.

@MarieIG- my list is The same as your public figures but I'd add Millicent Fenwick who was a New Jerseyan & Laura Bush who is younger than I but is an older woman

Maye Musk I think is the 70 yr old model for NYDJ & Carmen Dell'Orifice 82 year old model.  These ladies have not achieved historical significance but I do admire them.

@manhattan1950.  Just when i thought you hated EVERYTHING, you love two things in one post.  I'm impressed.

Admire, current tense----at this moment, no one comes to mind.  The women I did admire, are gone now.
