Milwaukee Press Club & Carol Matusin

I week or so ago I received an email from journalist Carol Matusin. She was a reporter in Milwaukee when the Press Club began to accept women as members. She noted that the Milwaukee Press Club misspelled her name on the list of new female members. That list was included in the article that Lance & I wrote about the integration of the Press Club. The above letter can be found in the Special Collections at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.

Milwaukee Journal women’s pages editors who became initial members included Lois Hagen and Peggy Daum.
