Notable Women of Arkansas : From Hattie to Hillary, 100 Names to Know Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

The one hundred Arkansas women profiled in Notable Women of Arkansas have glittered in the national spotlight.

They have blazed trails in athlet- ics, civil rights, literature, politics, science, show business, and the arts.

They have been outlaws and outcasts. Some were born in poverty, while others came from unimaginable wealth.

They have faced off against the publishing world, political foes, and the Creature from the Black Lagoon. Meet one Arkansas woman who was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize, Tony Award, and three Grammys.

Learn about a female presi- dential candidate whose initials are not HRC.

See beauty queens on the runway and a runaway beauty queen.

Meet the trailblazing black actress who, if she had been born thirty years later, might have had a career like Halle Berry's. They are all Arkansas women, each with their own family, child- hood, loves, losses, dreams, fears, hopes for the future, and ghosts from the past.

These notable women-profiled together in one volume-have left an impressive legacy.
