Boston HerStory: a slide presentation of the stories of 21 Boston women

NEW! A slideshow featuring BWHT’s  Twenty-one Notable Women. BWHT is excited to present a new slideshow celebrating Boston women. Share with your classroom, your teacher, your friends, your children.

Click BostonHerStory1 to access the slideshow.

Background information: In 1991, Boston Public School teachers and students chose twenty-one women as the outstanding women in Boston history. In 1993 BWHT published “Biographies of Twenty-One Notable Women. A Curriculum Resource” which includes a short biography of each woman as well as places to visit, things to think about and suggestions for classroom projects when studying the woman. The new slideshow features these same 21 women in a new format, with new information and many new visuals.
