It Took a Woman to… ($48 temple members/$60 non-members)
Thursdays, December 9, 16, 23 and 30 (10:30 a.m.-noon)

Before the 1970s, the topic of women in history was largely missing from the general public consciousness. If you look at the list below, you’re amazed that this list is comprised of inventions that we all use in our everyday lives. Yet, the inventors are mostly unknown, and that is a sad commentary on our gender history. Learn about these brilliant and fascinating women. They had to overcome huge obstacles, not just their gender, but their race, lack of money, lack of education, their personal lives and other stumbling blocks. What is even more interesting is that many of these inventions were made well over 100 years ago, and in some cases 200 years ago. We’re all familiar with the names of Bell, Edison, Ford and Franklin; however, we’ll come to admire these inventors because “IT TOOK A WOMAN TO…” invent these and many more:
