"This book seeks to understand some of the experiences and contributions of women journalists who wrote for the Federated Press (FP)-the journalistic pillar of the American labor movement from 1919 until 1956-and through their journalism-activism, facilitated the rise of mid-century labor feminism. As a collective biography, this book offers in-depth personal and professional analyses of four women journalist-activists whose lives and work intersected at the FP. Divided by class, geography, and age, these women nevertheless shared several characteristics and fought to create space for women within the labor movement. Their individual biographies are compelling in and of themselves, but their intersection at the FP also offers an exceptionally rich source of information about the midcentury American Left, the labor movement, labor feminism, and the many links between the so-called Old Left and New Left"-- Provided by publisher.
