Woman At Work: The Autobiography Of Mary Anderson As Told To Mary Winslow is a memoir written by Mary Anderson, an American businesswoman who rose to fame in the early 20th century for her innovative inventions and entrepreneurial spirit. The book is written in collaboration with Mary Winslow, who helped Anderson tell her life story. The autobiography covers Anderson's life from her childhood in Alabama to her successful career as a businesswoman in California. Anderson details her struggles as a woman in a male-dominated field, including the challenges she faced in getting her inventions patented and finding investors for her business ventures. She also writes about her experiences as a philanthropist and activist, particularly in her work with the Red Cross during World War I.Throughout the book, Anderson emphasizes the importance of hard work, determination, and perseverance in achieving success. She also reflects on the changing role of women in society and the challenges that still exist for women in the workforce.Overall, Woman At Work provides a fascinating glimpse into the life of a pioneering businesswoman and offers insights that are still relevant today for anyone striving to succeed in their chosen field.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
