About Ayn Rand
Ayn Rand (1905-1982) was a Russian-American novelist, philosopher, and playwright best known for her novels "The Fountainhead" and "Atlas Shrugged," which espouse her philosophy of Objectivism. Born in St. Petersburg, Russia, she fled the Bolshevik Revolution and immigrated to the United States in 1926, where she developed her ideas on individualism, capitalism, and rational self-interest that have influenced various cultural and political movements. Rand's works continue to spark debate and inspire both admiration and criticism for their bold advocacy of individual rights and free-market principles.
