PRODUCT SUMMARY


This outstanding biography series pays tribute to the lives and accomplishments of American women, past and present, who have had a tremendous impact on American society. With strength and vision, they overcame traditional barriers to achieve distinction in government, women's rights, social reform, science, medicine, literature, sports and the arts. Archival footage, still photographs, historic sketchings, letters and poetry, along with interviews of historians and experts in women's studies, vividly document each remarkable woman's life and ideals, as well as those of the society in which she lived.
