Funding Feminism
From 1900 to 1960 Katherine Dexter McCormick, married to the owner of the International Harvester Company, gave millions of dollars to women's causes. Her philanthropy began in 1913 with the suffrage movement and culminated in the 1960s with her support of the research led by Geoffrey Pincus to find a female oral contraceptive. Yet she was only one of many wealthy white women who provided financial support to women's causes. Without such support,…

Biography as History
I FIRST ENCOUNTERED BIOGRAPHY as a genre of history in the 1960s, when I was a Ph.D. candidate in the Columbia University history department specializing in U.S. politics during the early republic. Intrigued by Thomas Jefferson, I wrote a paper on the already large number of Jefferson biographies, which even then constituted a complex biographical tradition about him. By the early 1970s, inspired by the emerging feminist movement, I joined those …
The Creature from the Black Lagoon
The whiteness of Marilyn Monroe offers a case study of the interaction between race, sexuality, gender, and class in the formation of individual and cultural identity. Surveying the historical meanings of white as an influence on blonde whiteness, this study of Monroe proposes that historical contexts, individual agency, and the close analysis of specific written and visual texts all need to be taken into account in studying the concept of whiten…

Creating Beauty to Cure the Soul
This intriguing book charts a number of themes within the history of the ideology of aesthetic surgery by connecting that ideology to the psychoanalytic goal of enhancing personal well-being. The Hippocratic oath required for entry into the medical profession forbids surgery on healthy patients; thus, from the founding of their specialty in 1887, aesthetic surgeons justified their procedures on psychological rather than medical grounds. By doing …
