- Description: Nellie Bly began her career as a journalist at the Pittsburgh Dispatch, adopting her pseudonym from a character in a famous song by Stephen Foster. After moving to New York, she continued her journalism career at Joseph Pulitzer's New York World. In 1888, Bly suggested to her editor the idea of turning the fiction of "Around the World in 80 Days" into reality. On November 14, 1889, at 9:40 am, Nellie Bly departed from New York to undertake her own journey around the world, revisiting Jules Verne's idea. The reporter traveled 24'899 miles in seventy-two days, six hours, eleven minutes, and fourteen seconds, returning to New York on January 25, 1890, and setting a new record for circumnavigation. This record was short-lived, later improved by George Francis Train, who completed the journey in sixty-seven days. Elizabeth Jane Cochran, while not the first woman to accomplish such a feat, was the first to do so in this manner, becoming a role model for women seeking emancipation

A questo proposito va notato che così come Bly non fu la prima donna americana a diventare reporter, ella non fu neanche la prima donna a fare il giro del mondo da sola; ma in entrambi i casi introdusse in tali ambiti delle novità che ne trasformarono le precedenti modalità e resero unica la sua esperienza. Nel caso del viaggio intorno al mondo, Bly fu la prima donna a fare una corsa contro il tempo che, combinando il tema della velocità - legato al progresso tecnico - con quello della trasgressione, risultò particolarmente attraente agli occhi del pubblico americano; inoltre la grande pubblicità data all'evento dal quotidiano che lo sponsorizzava contribuì al successo strepitoso dell'impresa.
