Jane Byrne, Only Woman to Lead Chicago, Dies at 81 - NYTimes.com:
"Jane M. Byrne, who stunned Chicago’s Democratic machine in 1979 when she was elected mayor after sharply criticizing the incumbent for his handling of a devastating winter — a victory that made her the city’s first female mayor, though her tenure lasted just one term — died on Friday in Chicago. She was 81."
