In the late 1960s and into the 1970s, one fashion debate was whether women should wear pants in business and social situations. Dress reform had been an issue for decades, beginning with Amelia Bloomer and female suffrage. To some people, the wearing of pants symbolized a threat to gender distinctions at a changing time. For others, it was a form of liberation that was covered in the fashion pages. In 1957, The New York Times noted that physician Mary Walker was awarded the Medal of Honor for being one of the first women to wear pants and “other masculine clothing in public.” Pants were about more than clothing. As Gail Collins wrote in her book, When Everything Changed, pants became a theme for the complexity of gender roles in America in the 1960s and 1970s.

The Men Behind the Golden Era of the Florida Women’s Pages: Jim Bellows, Lee Hills, & Al Neuharth
By Kimberly Wilmot Voss, PhD
For decades, the only place for women in journalism was in the women’s pages of newspapers. The “golden era” for the sections was in the 1950s and 1960s. And, the place to be during those decades was Florida. It was due to a mix of talented women journalists and male editors who were willing to change the definition of women’s news. With South Florida’s population booming after World War II through the building up of the Space Coast, there was big news to report. The women’s sections began to present a “quilted news” that mixed the traditional with the progressive. Al Neuharth, who would go on to found USA Today, began at the Miami Herald before heading Gannett’s Florida newspapers. He hired Gloria Biggs to be the first publisher of a Gannett newspaper. In 1950, Lee Hills hired women’s page editor Dorothy Jurney and directed her to improve her section at the Miami Herald. Jim Bellows helped improve women’s news at the Miami News before moving on to head several daily newspapers. This paper is the story of the men helped (and occasionally hurt) women’s news in Florida.
Regional Cookery: The Relationship Between Newspaper Food Editors & Home Cook...Kimberly Voss
This is an examination of newspaper cookbooks from the 1940s through the 1970s. Many newspaper editors published cookbooks and cooking pamphlets over the years. Some included favorites of the food editors and others were collections of recipes sent in by home cook readers or restaurant chefs.
This session will demonstrate how to use social media to promote your professional work and to better understand the communication of the future. The focus will be on developing best practices of social media use, with examples from my professional blog, as well as my Academia.edu, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and Slideshare accounts. There will also be tips on getting started for those not currently using social media.

25. Lakeland Restaurant Reviewing
• Jane Nickerson dined one evening last week at an old
established eatery whose manager had changed. It was
a motel restaurant which Jane had panned pretty badly
a year ago. Wanting to do amends, Jane returned
hoping to find new management serving better and
more exciting dishes. But lo, what did Jane find? The
usual fare, higher prices and poorly prepared food.
Overly concerned that she would have to again give the
restaurant a bad review, she talked with her editors.
We agreed that we would forego the review and try it
again in six months to see if things get better.
Material came from her writing, her NYT personnel file from the NYPL, references to her in books & Cecily Brownstone’s oral history.

In addition to jobs as a
When Nickerson reviewed restaurants, her dinner partners often included popular chef and cookbook author James Beard and longtime Associated Press food editor Cecily Brownstone
According to the New York Times food editor Jane Nickerson, there were more than 21,000 restaurants in her city by 1949. She wrote: “They serve to the city’s residents and guest foods in so many languages as to rob the city of any one set of distinctive dishes.” She went on mention Polish, French, Italian, Chinese, and German restaurants (Tracy, 1952, 143).
Nickerson leaves the NYT for Lakeland in 1957; she is replaced by Craig Claiborne – who was not Jane’s or James Beards’ first choice.
