Annie Denton Cridge (1825-1875) was a British-American author, lecturer, socialist reformer, suffragist and spiritualist. Born Annie Denton in England in 1825, she and her brother William emigrated to America in the 1840’s, where she married Alfred Cridge. She published an autobiography - My Soul’s Thraldom and Its Deliverance (1856) - and wrote articles for several magazines. However, she is most well known for her suffragist work, Man’s Rights; or, How Would You Like It? (1870) which presents a satirical utopian dream, where the gender roles have been reversed and women are anything but submissive.
