Actors - Pauline Cushman


ɣ
Pauline Cushman (June 10, 1833–December 7, 1893), a New Orleans-born actor, served as a Union spy in the American Civil War. After becoming an actor, she moved from New Orleans to New York at the age of 18. During the Civil War, she became a transvestite spy, discovering the battle plans of Confederate general Braxton Bragg. She was caught and sentenced to death, but escaped execution, enabling her to keep providing intelligence information to General William Rosecrans and President Abraham Lincoln.
