These original monologues describe the lives of nine women writers: Louisa May Alcott, Maya Angelou, Emma Lazarus, Pearl S. Buck, Zora Neale Hurston, J. K. Rowling, Beatrix Potter, Yoshiko Uchida, and Nellie Bly. These original monologue scripts were created by the AAUW Thousand Oaks, California Branch, Inc to enable parents, teachers, students, librarians and others to make women's history come alive.
