The Whip is inspired by the true story of a woman, Charlotte
"Charley" Parkhurst (1812-1879) who lived most of her extraordinary
life as a man. As a young woman in Rhode Island, she fell in love
and had a child. Her husband was lynched and her baby killed. The
destruction of her family drove her west to California, dressed as
a man, to track down the murder. Charley became a renowned
stagecoach driver. She killed a famous outlaw, had a secret love
affair, and lived with a housekeeper who, unaware of her true sex,
fell in love with her. Charley was the first woman to vote in
America (as a man). Her grave lies in Watsonville, California.
