From 1925 to 1965, my grandmother wrote a syndicated newspaper column called Hope at the Helm. She went to college (the University of Illinois) before women were even allowed to vote, let alone encouraged to get higher education, and got a job as a newspaper columnist in 1925 when few women held professional jobs.
