Who was Gloria Steinem’s late husband, David Bale – the father of Christian Bale?

Gloria Steinem, the celebrated author and activist who became the most visible symbol of the US women’s movement and remained a fierce and eloquent advocate for equality for six decades, has died. She was 92.

Steinem, a co-founder of Ms. Magazine, was a hugely recognisable presence wherever she went. And she went everywhere: Much of her life as an advocate was spent on the road, speaking at college campuses and community centres, at rallies and marches.
