Bobbi Harlow

From Freepedia

Bobbi Harlow is a fictional school teacher in Berke Breathed's comic strip Bloom County. She is cousin to Quiche Lorraine and aunt to Yaz Pistachio.

An avid feminist, Bobbi was welcomed by the children, particularly Milo Bloom and Michael Binkley. However, the conservative adults in the town were suspicious of her liberal tendencies, such as having the students wear gas masks in case the fascists (or, as the children called them "fishes") tear gassed them, throwing fake blood at the war mongerers ("war monkeys" in kid-speak) and teaching them about liberated women. Bobbi originally started dating Steve Dallas, but was swept off her feet (figuratively and literally) by Cutter John.

Later it was revealed Bobbi joined the staff of talk show Donahue in 1983, and then shaved her head in despair over the failure of the ERA.
