Doesn't seem to be working so well. I think it would be easiest for the person whose guess has been confirmed correct to then "assume responsibility" by simply posting "Who am I?", just so people know you realize it is your turn and intend to play.
(I'm someone probably a great deal more famous/have more name recognition than Bridget of York - though that's always hard to determine with historical figures)

So, deceased female christian, member of a royal family, was a nun for a few years, not a scientist, not alive in the 20th century, most active in Europe, featured in numerous books, movies, and plays, even by Shakespeare, but he didn't name the book after her or even made her the lead character.
Are you French?

Wife of two kings, mother of three kings, and ruler England in my own right as Queen Regent for a decade while Richard was away on his crusade. I'm the seducer of Henry II, the secret ally of Robin Hood, and probably the richest and most influential woman of the middle ages. Katherine Hepburn won the Academy Award for playing me in The Lion in Winter opposite Peter O'Toole, and Glenn Close won the Golden Globe for playing me the 2003 remake. (Opposite Patrick Stewart as Henry II) I'm a character in Shakespeare's King John, as well as Sir Walter Scott's Ivanhoe.
I am also the 19th Great Grandmother of Queen Elizabeth II.
In 1201, after having seen both my husbands and almost all my children die before me, I took the veil as a nun and lived the rest of my days in seclusion at Fontevraud Abbey, where I was buried and can still be seen today.
