Food Columnist Virginia Voigt Roeder Cobb
I have been researching Virginia Voigt Roeder Cobb who had been a food columnist with the Baltimore Sun. This image is from a cookbook which came from the columns. She will be included in my upcoming women’s page editors book. My wonderful ILL folks tracked down her 1959 dissertation from Johns Hopkins University. It’s interesting that she studied the impact of working mothers when she was the mother of four children.

Baltimore Sun: Fun With Sea Food
I tracked down this recipe booklet “Fun With Sea Food” published by the Baltimore Sun in the 1950s. The author is Virginia Roeder who had a background in home economics and a PhD from Johns Hopkins University. I am researching more about her but it has been a challenge as she married and changed names several times. She will be included in my upcoming book about women’s page journalism.
