In case you were wondering, 1950s South Bend, Indiana, was not a hotbed of activity for the women’s empowerment movement. South Bend women, generally limited to a handful of career choices acceptable for ladies, tended to become teachers or nurses. Little girls growing up then and there had likely never seen or heard of a woman who was, say, a scientist or a doctor.
