  • The Story of America's Industrial Revolution Is an Epic Tale, Full of Heroes and Heroines, Villains and Vagabonds, Accomplishm
    The story of America’s Industrial Revolution is an epic tale, full of heroes and heroines, villains and vagabonds, accomplishments and failures, sweated toil and elegant mechanisms, grand visions and unintended consequences. How did the United States evolve from a group of 18th century agricultural colonies clustered along the eastern seaboard into the world’s greatest industrial power? Why did this nation become the seedbed of so many important 19th century inventions and the birthplace of assembly-line mass production in the early 20th century? Who contributed? Who benefited? Who was left behind? At The Henry Ford in Dearborn, Michigan, school teachers from across the country explored this story with university scholars and museum curators during two week-long teacher workshops supported by the National Endowment for the Humanities. Workshop participants spent mornings discussing their passion for American history with distinguished university professors, mid-days on field trips to more than a dozen historic farms, mills and laboratories, and afternoons planning activities for their students. They developed methods for incorporating various senses and learning styles into new lesson plans that bring America’s Industrial Revolution out of the books and into living history. This booklet contains samples of those lesson plans.

Contents 1 Early Life and Family 1.1 The Singer relatives 2 Marriages and relationships 2.1 Lesbian relationships 3 Patron of arts 4 Public service 5 Foundation Singer-Polignac 6 Notes 7 Sources 8 External links Early Life and Family Winnaretta Singer was the twentieth of the 24 children of Isaac Merritt Singer. Her mother was his Parisian-born second wife, Isabella Eugenie Boyer, who was possibly the model for Bartholdi's Statue of Liberty. Winnaretta was born in Yonkers, New York. After the outbreak of American Civil War, the Singer family moved to Paris, where they remained until the Franco-Prussian War. The family then settled in England, first in London, and then Paignton, Devon; there, Isaac Singer built Oldway Mansion, a 115-room palace modeled on the Petit Trianon at Versailles, which he named "The Wigwam." The Singer relatives Winnaretta's older brother, Adam Mortimer Singer, became one of England's landed gentry. Her younger sister, Isabelle-Blanche (1869-1896) married Jean, duc de Decazes. Their daughter, Daisy Fellowes, was raised by Winnaretta after Isabelle-Blanche's death and became a noted socialite, magazine editor, and fashion trendsetter in her own right. Winnaretta's younger brother, Paris Singer, was one of the architects and financiers of the resort of Palm Beach, Florida; he had a child by Isadora Duncan.
