In this episode, we'll explore the myth that women were not in business before the mid- to late-20th century. Meeteetse's own Sylvia Mikkelson and Mary Corbett help us tell this story locally while we contextualize it through interviews with Drs. Susan Ingalls Lewis and Susan Yohn. Dr. Susan Ingalls Lewis is a Professor Emerita in History at State University of New York (SUNY) New Paltz and author of Unexceptional Women and Girls to the Rescue. Dr. Susan Yohn studies women and gender in modern America and author of A Contest of Faiths: Missionary Women and Pluralism in the American Southwest.

For more information on Mary Corbett and Sylvia Mikkelson, mentioned in this episode, read our blog posts! Please note, in the episode, we mistakenly state that Mary Corbett did not have children. While she did not have children with John Corbett, she did have children. We will update the episode to reflect this as soon as we are able.
