History has been shaped by many, from activists to scientists to politicians. However, not all who have contributed have been recognized, particularly those who are women.

Which is why Diana Carlin, PhD, Professor Emerita of communication at Saint Louis University, will be hosting a series of lectures at Osher’s Lifelong Learning Institute to look back at some of the women who have been left out of our history books.

She joined Idaho Matters for a preview.
