KanellDoesn't really live up to the vibrant lives of the Gilbreths as portrayed in their children's later biographies of them, and there's very little connection among the (charmingly illustrated) page vignettes; I can't imagine reading this to my grandchild and having him pay attention. Someone diluted this in the wrong direction. Also, the "wonder kitchen" never really comes through. A good idea that didn't pan out in the writing. Born into a life of privilege in 1878, Lillian Moller Gilbreth put her pampered life aside for one of adventure and challenge.

  • Mothers of Inventions,” the Washington Post, Wednesday, March 12 1997; Page H01
    Recognizing Women’s Contributions to Engineering and Technology SME, WESTEC, Los Angeles, CA, 06-03-14-06 Ileana Costea, California State University, Northridge Abstract: The article presents women’s noteworthy contributions to science, technology, and specifically to manufacturing. The role of women in creating a balanced workplace environment is also discussed. Many inventions which are still in use today were made by women: the non-reflective glass, the windshield wiper, noise-less trains, liquid paper, the ubiquitous square-bottom supermarket brown bag, and reducing air and noise pollution methods, to name just a few. Yet, when you look at lists on categories such as inventors, scientists, engineers, Nobel Prizes winners you see mostly men’s names. A few such lists were examined by the author. In the list of famous scientists, in physical sciences only one woman, Marie Curie. [1]: Archimedes, Aristotle, Niels Bohn, Nicholas Copernicus, Marie Curie, Charles Darwin, Leonardo da Vinci, Rene Descartes, Thomas Alva Edison, Albert Einstein, Ben Frankiln, Galilei Galileo, Isaac Newton, Max Planck, Wilhelm Conrad Rontgen, Carl Sagan, Nikola Tesla. In a list of 43 famous engineers there are only five women.[2]: Bonnie Dunbar - NASA astronaut, Beulah Louise Henry ("the lady Edison" for the many inventions), Grace Murray Hopper, a computer engineer, Judith Resnik - Challenger astronaut, electrical engineer, Katherine Stinson - the first female graduate of N.C. State University's College of Engineering. In a long list of 209 only the following are women [3]: Emile Berliner, Katherine Blodgett, Bette Nesmith Graham, Erna Schneider Hoover, Margaret Knight, Stephanie Kwolek, Hedy Lamarr, Olivia Poole. A list of women inventors is given on-line at [4].

  • Nasty Women Transgressive Womanhood in American History
    Nasty Women Transgressive Womanhood in American History Edited by Marian Mollin With the Students of HIST 4914 - Spring 2020 The saying goes that well-behaved women rarely make history. For centuries, American women have been carving out spaces of their own in a male-dominated world. From politics, to entertainment, to their personal lives, women have been making their mark on the American landscape since the nation’s inception, often ignored or overlooked by those creating the record. This collection takes the long view of the American woman and examines her transgressive behavior through the decades. Including stories of women enslaved, early celebrities, engineers, and more, these essays demonstrate how there is no such thing as an “average” woman, as even those ordinary women are found doing extraordinary things. This collection comes at a particularly poignant time, as August 2020 marked the 100th anniversary of the ratification and adoption of the 19th amendment, which – in a landmark for women’s right – granted American women the right to vote. Virginia Tech Department of History in association with ISBN 9781949373516 90000 > 9 781949 373516 Nasty Women Nasty Women: Transgressive Womanhood in American History is part of the Virginia Tech Student Publications series. This series contains book-length works authored and edited by Virginia Tech undergraduate and graduate students and published in collaboration with Virginia Tech Publishing. Often these books are the culmination of class projects for advanced or capstone courses. The series provides the opportunity for students to write, edit, and ultimately publish their own books for the world to learn from and enjoy.
