Please join us for our next Issues Exploration Event – We’ll be discussing the book “Groundbreakers, Rule-breakers & Rebels – 50 Unstoppable St. Louis Women.” In the book, author Katie J. Moon tells the stories of fifty female pioneers with ties to St. Louis. Whether world-famous or not, each of the trailblazing women in this book faced a host of specific obstacles and restrictions in their chosen fields that existed solely because of their gender. Their victories were all hard won and well earned.
