When Women Ran Fifth Avenue

by Julie Satow

This account is a multilayered look into the lives of three women who set the course for New York City department stores between the 1920s and 1970s. These fascinating females from small town(s) USA became a tour de force in the world of merchandising. Mention is made of American fashion houses nationwide which many readers will recognize.

Julie Satow, an award winning journalist and author who contributes to National Public Radio (NPR) and various other publications. The Chicago Tribune review shares critical praise of both author and book...“A fascinating excavation of the midcentury woman…whose designs and ideas reinvented American department stores and consumer fashion.”
