Antoinette Brown Blackwell by Elizabeth Cazden

Antoinette Brown Blackwell by Elizabeth Cazden

This first biography of the 19th-century feminist and first American woman to be ordained a Christian minister is steeped in family correspondence, contemporary newspaper accounts, and Blackwell's own work.

Antoinette Brown Blackwell is determined to breach "the great wall of custom" and become a minister. Equally compelling is the story of her attempt to integrate her public and private lives; on the condition that she could continue her own professional work and he would share household responsibilities, she agrees to marry Elizabeth Blackwell's brother Samuel. Cazden follows Blackwell through her feminist activity on the lecture circuit with Lucy Stone, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and Susan B. Anthony.

Elizabeth Cazden graduated from Oberlin College in 1971 with a degree in history. She began her work on Antoinette Brown Blackwell as a term paper for a course on The History of Women in America. She graduated from Harvard Law School in 1978, and now practices law and is a Quaker historian, writer, speaker, and workshop leader.
