Description

Alice Ames Winter (November 25, 1865 - April 5, 1944) was an American litterateur, author and clubwoman.

She served as president of the General Federation of Women's Clubs (GFWC).

During the period of 1890 to 1892, Winter worked as a teacher, and in the 1890s, she served as president of the Minneapolis Kindergarten Association.

She was one of the founders and was the first president (1907-15) of the Minneapolis Woman's Club.

During World War I, she was chairman of the Council of National Defense Minnesota Woman's Committee and the Minnesota Commission of Public Safety Women's Auxiliary.

She also served as director of the Minnesota Child Labor Commission, and of the Minneapolis chapter of the American Red Cross.

Winters used the connections that she made on these committees to further the cause of woman suffrage.
