On Wisconsin Mention of My Book
My upcoming 2017 book about women and politics is mentioned in this article in the University of Wisconsin Alumni Magazine, On Wisconsin.
“Media and historians may focus on public protests for women’s rights, but the steady work of state commissions is what allowed women to enter the public sphere, laying the foundation for the women’s liberation movement, says Kimberly Voss, a journalism associate professor at the University of Central Florida. Her book Politicking Politely: Well-Behaved Women Making a Difference in the 1960s and 1970s profiles a half-dozen female journalists and political operatives who worked behind the scenes to push for change. “Without them, a lot of what happens in the late ’60s and early ’70s doesn’t happen,” Voss says.”

Voss is not only a terrific researcher but is also able to write her findings with clarity and remarkable perception.
