Early lifeKissling was born Frances Romanski into a Polish working-class family in New York City in 1943.[2] Five years later, after having another daughter, her mother divorced and later married a man named Kissling, with whom two more children were conceived.[2] Inspired by the nuns at her Catholic school, she joined a convent in the early 1960s at age 19, but after just six months she left and enrolled in the New School.[2] Pro-choice activismKissling became active in the women's movement in the 1960s. In 1970, after abortion was made legal in New York, she was asked to direct an abortion clinic in Pelham, which she accepted.[2] In 1977 she was appointed founding President of the National Abortion Federation, a position she held until 1980.{{Citation needed|date=January 2009}} In 1978 she joined the board of Catholics for a Free Choice, and in 1982 she took over as president – a position she held for 25 years until her retirement in 2007.[2] She supports public funding for contraception and abortion, and is the co-author of Rosie: The Investigation of a Wrongful Death, with Ellen Frankfort.[3][4] Kissling was a 2007–2008 Fellow of the Radcliffe Institute Fellowship Program, part of the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard University.
