Abstract

Meet the little leaders. They're brave. They're bold. They changed the world. Featuring the true stories of 40 inspirational women creators--from writers to inventors, artists to scientists--this book is as inspirational as it is educational. Readers will meet trailblazing women such as revolutionary architect Zaha Hadid; actor/inventor Hedy Lamarr; environmental activist Wangari Maathai; modernist painter and animator Mary Blair; and physicist Chien-Shiung Wu. Some names will be familiar, some will not--but all these women had a lasting impact on their fields.
