[4] She has written on a number of topics in women’s history, including the effects of woman suffrage, the history of eating disorders among women and the history of women in management. Her article, “Harriet Williams Russell Strong: Inventor and California Businesswoman Extraordinaire” (2005), is part of a book on the history of women in business. [5]
