Ida Minerva Tarbell (1857 — 1944) was part of the “muckraker” investigative journalism, a group of progressives who used their exposés to further develop the progressive political debate.  

Tarbell became well known for her The History of the Standard Oil Company, one of the most meticulous descriptions of the concentration of wealth and the growing power of trusts.
