Hello, Women's History Networkers --
Susan Hollander sent me this message this morning. It's an open invitation
for us all to spring into action and get women's history onto the NPR
airwaves!

Susan's message read:
A short piece on NPR's morning edition yesterday morning solicited
suggestions for forgotten moments in 20th century history. They plan to
feature some of these forgotten moments in upcoming shows. I thought
perhaps you might have some suggestions for them!
I suggested that Gertrude Ederle's historic swim across the English
Channel and Babe Didrickson's entire amazing career are largely
forgotten.
To make your own suggestion simply follow these directions,
clipped from NPR's web site:
