  Edna Gellhorn


http://library.wustl.edu/artwork/

On December 18, 1964, Mrs. Gellhorn delivered an address in which she provided a brief history of the woman's suffrage movement, and the founding of the LWV of the United States. Her 11 minute talk was recorded, and a 33 1/3 RPM vinyl disc of it was passed down to Karen Nelson, one of our members, from her mother, Genevieve Nelson. Karen provided it so that it could be converted into the MP3 format that you will hear after the file loads (which might take a few minutes if you are connected via a dial-up modem). Please be patient. The talk will begin as soon as the 10 megabyte file finishes downloading.
