My favorite women’s page-related Thanksgiving story is about food editor Jeanne Voltz while she worked at the Miami Herald in the 1950s.

Tomorrow, Lance and I are leaving for the American Journalism Historians Association convention in Tucson. I am presenting a paper about women’s page journalist and food editor Jeanne Voltz and her coverage in the L.A. Times in the 1960s and early 1970s: “Food Journalism and Culinary Anthropology: Jeanne Voltz and the Food Section in the Los Angeles Times.” Here is the abstract: As society was changing in the 1960s, food editor Jeanne Voltz guided one of the most significant food sections in the country – at the Los Angeles Times.
