Description

Alfred Allan Lewis (au). To the women portrayed here, power meant not only the ability to live successful, personally satisfying lives but also the means to transform the world in which they lived. Elisabeth Marbury was the world’s first woman theatrical/literary agent & invented the Amer. musical comedy; her companion Elsie de Wolfe, became the first woman interior decorator. Anne Morgan, daughter of J.P. Morgan, built residential clubs to ease the conditions of working women, while Anne Vanderbilt did more for the Amer. war effort in France than many government relief org. & began the first drug-control program in the U.S. This book paints intimate portraits of their individual lives.
