    Anne Rowe research

    I am writing a paper about St. Petersburg Times and St. Petersburg Evening Independent women’s page editor Anne Rowe for an upcoming history conference. In 1910, the owner of the Evening Independent declared St. Petersburg the “Sunshine City” and made the famous “Sunshine Offer”: On any day the sun didn’t shine, the newspaper would be given away. There were only 200 times this happened in nearly 80 years. Here is more information. Anne helped to transform the women’s section of the Evening Independent in the 1960s. I discovered great information about the transformation in the Penney-Missouri papers at the University of Missouri.
