Out Of Our Fathers' House

Synopsis

Based on Eve Merriam's "Growing up female in America: ten lives"

"Presents the true life stories of women who sought independence at any cost.

The compelling text is taken entirely from the diaries, journals and letters of the characters portrayed, among them: Elizabeth Cady Stanton, the powerful founder of the women's suffrage movement who died in 1902 at age 87; the famous labor organizer, "Mother" Mary Jones (1830-1930), who led the fight against child labor; and Dr. Anna Howard Shaw (1847-1919), who as a frontier minister, protected herself by carrying a fully-loaded pistol at all times."--Www.broadwayarchive.com.
