Helen Reddy
25 October 1941 - 29 September 2020

"I Am Woman" is a song written by Australian musicians Helen Reddy and Ray Burton. Performed by Reddy, the first recording of "I Am Woman" appeared on her debut album I Don't Know How to Love Him, released in May 1971, and was heard during the closing credits for the 1972 film Stand Up and Be Counted.

A new recording of the song was released as a single in May 1972 and became a number-one hit later that year, eventually selling over one million copies.

The song came near the apex of the counterculture era and, by celebrating female empowerment, became an enduring feminist anthem for the women s liberation movement. Following Reddy's death in September 2020, the song peaked at number 2 on the Australian digital sales chart.
