Helen Muir’s Miami Tea Parties
I am working on one of my papers for the 2015 Florida Conference of Historians that I will be presenting next month in Lakeland. It’s called “Miami Maven Helen Muir: Writer, Historian, Advocate & Tea Party Host.” I went through Muir’s papers at the University of Miami a few years ago. Muir held annual tea parties for her friends who sometimes came from across the country to reunite. In this photo are women’s page journalists Marie Anderson and Dorothy Jurney.

Roberta Applegate & Dorothy Jurney Photo
I just came across this old image of Miami Herald women’s page journalists Roberta Applegate and Dorothy Jurney. I love their hats and gloves.

Florida Women’s Page Journalism Publications
I was inspired to put together a list of my publications about Florida women’s page journalists from the 1950’s and 1960’s after re-reading the book Orange Journalism which overlooked Florida women’s pages. The photo above is of the women’s page department of the Miami Herald in the 1950’s. It includes Marie Anderson, Robert Applegate and Dorothy Jurney.

New Image of Dorothy Jurney & Marie Anderson
Jeanne Voltz was kind enough to share this great 1959 image of Miami Herald women’s page editors Dorothy Jurney and Marie Anderson. Jeanne’s mother was the food editor at the Herald in the 1950s. Dorothy Jurney was the women’s page editor at the Miami Herald in the 1950s, with Marie Anderson as her assistant. When Dorothy moved on the Detroit Free Press in the 1950s, Marie became the editor. Under her leadership, the women’s page section was retired from the Penney Missouri Awards – the top recognition for the pages – because it won so many times.
