Authors tell stories of notable Portland women
ASTORIA — The
American Association
of University Women,
Astoria Branch present
authors Tracy J. Prince
and her daughter Zadie
Schaffer at the Astoria
Library, 450 10th St., at
6 p.m. Tuesday, March
19. The women will dis-
cuss their book “Nota-
ble Women of Portland.”
The event is open to the
public.
Their book explores
Oregon’s history through
women’s stories during
pioneer times, the Pro-
gressive Era, World War
I, World War II and the
post-war era. There are
also chapters on “Women
in the Arts” and “Women
in Politics.” The book
describes women who
radically changed Ore-
gon, including Native
Americans, pioneers,
doctors, artists, suf-
fragists, politicians and
authors.
Prince, a research pro-
fessor at Portland State
University, has also writ-
ten “Portland’s Goose
Hollow,” “Culture Wars
in British Literature” and
“Portland’s Slabtown.”
Her daughter experi-
enced a lack of expo-
sure to women’s voices
at school, and her hope
was that “Notable Women
of Portland” would shine
more light on the often
unknown and diverse
women who helped shape
Oregon. This book has
recently been adopted by
Portland Public Schools
and Catlin Gabel.
