Lillemor Rachlew was one of four Norwegians who were the first women to set foot on the Antarctic mainland in 1937, for whom the Four Ladies Bank in Prydz Bay was named. On an earlier voyage to Antarctica Rachlew took photographs, which were published in 1934. Sections from her diary were preserved, the earliest examples of a woman’s writing about her travels in Antarctica.
