Judy Singleton, businesswoman, writer and former editor
of Indianapolis Woman magazine, captures the spirit of Indiana's
trailblazing women in this unique desk calendar collection of 53
biographical sketches. Each week a trailblazer tells in her own words the path taken to break a gender barrier. The stories are about survival, passion and talent, and the challenges trailblazers faced in showing up where they weren't always wanted. The trailblazers range in age from 19 to 101 and they represent 35 occupational and community categories. Singleton says "My calendar project is a celebration of the women who paved the way for girls to grow up today to be anything they are capable of being." The author is available for speaking engagements and book signings. Call 317-255-2002. Retail price: $14.95 plus $2.00 S/H, (plus $.75 IN sales tax if applicable).

| "In simple but moving stories, we find the essence of the trailblazing woman: preparation, hard work, and the courage to step out and meet new challenges. Each woman's story is unique and expressed in her own voice. Yet, they all tell of a passage through adversity and uncertainty onto great achievement. Only Judy Singleton, a trailblazer in her own right, could bring together such a peerless selection of Indiana women who share the common experience of leading the way, breaking down barriers, and expanding the possibilities for every woman who follows on the path they have cut." |
