About the Book
Remarkable Women of Indianapolis highlights the lives, achievements, and lasting impact of the women who helped shape Indianapolis through leadership, activism, philanthropy, arts, education, and community impact. From suffragists and Civil War heroes to trailblazing entrepreneurs like Madam C. J. Walker and Christel DeHaan, the book celebrates both well-known figures and unsung women whose contributions helped define the Circle City. Lifelong Hoosier and author Ashley Petry brings these remarkable stories to light in a compelling celebration of Indianapolis history.
