In honour of International Women’s Day, let’s celebrate the Aussie ladies who have made history.

Catherine Helen Spence, writer and Australia's first female political candidate.

Catherine Helen Spence, writer and Australia's first female political candidate.

Catherine was born in Scotland and emigrated to Australia with her family when she was 14. She began writing for The South Australian and had her first novel, Clara Morison: A Tale of South Australia During the Gold Fever, published in 1854. In 1897 she became Australia's first female political candidate.

Edith Cowan, politician and the first woman elected to an Australian parliament.

Edith Cowan, politician and the first woman elected to an Australian parliament.

Familiar to most Australians as the face on our $50 note, in 1894 Edith co-founded the Karrakatta Club, a women's group that successfully campaigned for the vote for women. She was also co-founder of Western Australia's National Council of Women and played a central role in the building of the King Edward Memorial Hospital for Women in Perth. She founded the Children's Protection Society and campaigned for the creation of children's courts. During the First World War she was chairperson of the Red Cross Appeal Committee and in 1920 she became one of the first female Justices of the Peace. That same year she was appointed a Member of the Order of the British Empire, and was elected to the Legislative Assembly, holding her seat until 1924.

Making her professional debut in Melbourne in 1886, Nellie went on to achieve fantastic success in Europe and was one of the biggest celebrities in the world. She created a music school in her hometown of Richmond, Victoria, which she later merged with the Melbourne Conservatorium. When war broke out in 1914, she raised over 100,000 pounds for war charities, and was honoured as a Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire as a result. In 1927 Nellie became the first Australian to appear on the cover of Time magazine. French chef August Escoffier created a number of dishes in her honour, including Peach Melba.

The president awkwardly bungled the title of the Aretha Franklin hit while hosting the Women of Soul concert series at the White House, drawing laughter.

“When Aretha [Franklin] first told us what R-S-P-E-C-T meant to her, she had no idea it would become a rallying cry for African Americans, and women, and then everyone who felt marginalized because of what they looked like or who they loved. They wanted some respect,” Obama said.

Open Road Films

AUSTIN — Twitter can be precarious for someone who doesn't know the territory, and that's exactly the danger presented in this exclusive clip from Chef, a culinary drama from writer-director-star Jon Favreau (Iron Man) that will make its debut Friday at the SXSW Film Festival.

In Chef, Favreau plays acclaimed chef Carl Casper, who finds himself in the middle of a social media frenzy after he unwittingly sends a taunting tweet to a food critic who gave him a scathing review. (Being new to Twitter, Casper thought he was sending a direct message.) In the clip below, his kitchen compatriots (played by John Leguizamo and Bobby Cannavale) try to talk him out of escalating his Twitter war with the food critic.

After that tweet, Casper's professional (and personal) life spins out of control, until he decides to regroup and open a food truck that serves authentic Cuban sandwiches. And that truck will be at SXSW, serving up food to some lucky festival-goers on Saturday, courtesy Favreau and chef Roy Choi, the food truck pioneer and Favreau's consultant on the film.
