She came from the upper class Anglo-Irish Protestant landowning elite of Ireland, which she abandoned in favour of Irish independence and social reform. She served as Member of Parliament (MP) for Dublin St Patrick's from 1918 to 1922. In the Irish Free State, she was elected Minister for Labour in the First Dáil, becoming the second female cabinet minister in Europe. Read more on Wikipedia
