COVER REVEAL: Marie Conner, A Leading Lady: Her Life and Civic Leadership in a Bygone Era by Elle Mott

Welcome to my stop on the Great Escapes Virtual Book Tour for the 🌟COVER REVEAL🌟 for  Marie Conner, A Leading Lady: Her Life and Civic Leadership in a Bygone Era by Elle Mott! COMING IN MARCH!

Marie was born a girl. That was only her first mistake, according to her father.

In an era when daughters and wives are not supposed to be concerned with matters outside the home, Marie is determined to prove him wrong. To do this, she must break down barriers placed on women in society, overcome difficulties that befall her, surpass hardships from the Great Depression, and then face an inevitable relocation.

Marie steps into her community and into the hearts of many people to give her time and help with their needs. She wants nothing in return other than her father’s acceptance as a worthy woman and yet, she gains much in return, even if it is not her father’s praise. This is Marie’s story—of a rise from her girlhood angst to become a leading lady—and much more.

About Me

Welcome! I started my career as a children’s librarian, later becoming a public library director and now I’m a stay at home mom. While my career might have changed, my love of reading has been a constant since I was in 4th grade, and I read over 200 books a year. I love talking about books and connecting readers of all ages with just the right book. Thanks for reading!
