Juliette Gordon Low is best known for founding Girl Scouts in the United States in 1912. She was born in Savannah, GA in 1860, married William Mackay Low in 1886. She was well-educated, enjoyed the arts, especially painting and sculpting, and traveled. Sir Robert Baden-Powell, founder of Boy Scouts, influenced his sister, Agnes Baden-Powell to start Girl Guides. Juliette Gordon Low assisted with Girl Guide troops in Scotland and felt that a similar organization should be started in the USA.
