Women Who Launch: Women Who Shattered Glass Ceilings by Marlene Wagman-Geller

4.0

This book is a fascinating look at stories of women who have not only overcome adversity but also fought against stereotypes and people’s expectations to not stay in the roles they are assigned by their peers. Some of the stand out stories for me included Sarah Hale who was one of the first female authors and also the writer of Mary has a little lamb, the true inventor of Monopoly, Jenny Craig’s diet industry and how Spanx came about all because of a pair of white trousers. This book celebrates women and the amazing achievements of strong determined women over the decades.
