'''Ayn Rand''' (1905-1982) was an American a Russian-born philosopher , screenwriter, and novelist, who used her novels to promote her philosophy, known as [[Objectivism]]. Her best-known novels are ''Atlas Shrugged'' and '"'The Fountainhead.'' Although her philosophy differs in many respects from [[Libertarianism]], it also emphasized invidual freedom, and her novels, particularly ''Atlas Shrugged,'' contain lectures that are considered touchstones for libertarian thinking.
