Joan Younger Dickinson & the Ladies Home Journal
Lance & I sent in our paper about wire and magazine writer Joan Younger Dickinson to a journal this week. Much of Younger Dickinson’s magazine writing in the 1950s and 1960s focused on women’s political & volunteer work – which was like the content found in progressive women’s pages of newspapers.
We went through her papers at the University of Wyoming several years ago and presented a paper at the Popular Culture Association convention in San Francisco in 2007. My fingers are crossed that the papers finds a home.

I would be happy to help. I went though Joan's papers at the Univ of Wyoming and I have an article about her coming out in a Magazine Journal next year. She had an amazing career.
