Search engine giant Google is celebrating veteran American journalist Nellie Bly’s 151st birthday with a musical doodle.

Elizabeth Jane Cochran, popularly known by her pen name Nellie Bly, was a pioneer in the field of investigative journalism.

She began her career with The Pittsburgh Dispatch. Angered by a “regressive” editorial on women in the newspaper, she wrote a rebuttal piece. Impressed by it, the editor gave her a job in the newspaper.

“At the time women who worked at newspapers almost always wrote articles on gardening, fashion or society. Nellie Bly eschewed these topics for hard pressing stories on the poor and oppressed,” says the bio in her official website.

She authored “Around The World In Seventy-Two Days,” based on an expedition she took that covered many countries including, England, France, Egypt, Ceylon, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Japan.

She was also America’s first female war correspondent. She covered the World War I from Austria.

Nellie Bly passed away due to pneumonia on January 27, 1922.

“When creating the Doodle, we took inspiration from Karen O’s lyrics and Nellie’s journey around the globe,” said Liat Ben-Rafael, Program Manager, Google Doodles, through a blogpost.
