Sophie Drinker

Sophie Lewis Drinker (geboren als Sophie Lewis Hutchinson; * 24. August 1888 in Haverford, Pennsylvania; † 6. September 1967 in Chestnut Hill, Pennsylvania) war eine US-amerikanische Begründerin der musikwissenschaftlichen Frauen- und Geschlechterforschung.

„I had never been a feminist nor has anyone in my family tutored me in this train of thought. I took no part in the struggle for women suffrage. In fact, I was hardly aware that it was going on. At that point, I was absorbed in child-bearing, in the management of the household affairs, and in my husband’s companionship. But the time came when some sleeping part of me awoke and had to be heeded.“
