Expand description
Through the centuries women have always worked, usually with little pay and no recognition. This book traces the lives of one hundred and fifty women who have made their mark in what, until recently, was a male-dominated business world. The achievements of female merchants, stock brokers, bankers, entrepreneurs, executives, and journalists are discussed; for example, newspaper publisher Katharine Graham and record company executive Sylvia Rhone.
