Florence Louise Fisher Bacolod[1] (September 18, 1918 – May 26, 1972) was an American motivational speaker in the 1960s and 1970s who traveled to high schools in the United States, telling stories about her past as a heroin addict and prostitute. Her eccentric mannerisms and often lurid stories – which included tales of prostitution, jailhouse lesbianism, and botched abortions – made her into a cult figure in the late 1970s and 1980s, with VHS tapes of her speaking engagements becoming collector's items.
