Description

Barbara Walters (fr); Lorraine Glennon (ed). Selected by a team of top women historians from across the nation & the editors of “Ladies’ Home Journal,” the women in this book helped bring about a major transformation in the role of women in the 20th century. Narrowing the choice down to just 100 names was a daunting task. But some names practically suggested themselves: Eleanor Roosevelt, Rachel Carson, Betty Friedan, Margaret Sanger, Mary McLeon Bethune, & Gloria Steinem. Not everyone will agree with every choice made for this book, but these women will influence our lives for untold years to come. They are listed in 7 categories: activists & politicians, writers & journalists, doctors & scientists, entrepreneurs, artists & entertainers, athletes, & pioneers & adventurers. Photos.
