Spotlight on Women of Achievement

These materials formerly were housed at Irene Stuber's undelete.org. The "calendar" is based on the 900+ episodes of Women of Achievement and Herstory that Irene Stuber emailed to her subscribers 1992-2002.

The presentation of the biographies and herstory is primarily through 365 daily, calendar episodes. The articles are arranged so that a specific date may be selected, or the entire Women of Achievement series can be read sequentially. Women and girls will find, day-by-day, the TRUE herstory of women's accomplishments. The original website note from Irene read: "Read about the women born on your birthday or those of your friends and relatives is fun -- and will amaze you! Print the particular episode and send it to a friend on her birthday! She'll treasure it above the expensive greeting cards! There is an astounding amount of information gathered by women's scholars through the millennium, but very little is available to the general public. Almost none of the broad sweep of women's accomplishments are available to young girls in who seek role models."

Irene Stuber, the "grandmother of women's internet activism", did not finish her calendar. Much of it is here, but as time went on, Irene's growing blindness limited her ability to write and code the vast information she had accumulated in her lifetime. On the other hand, can anyone say that anyone's "work" as a human being ever is done? The important part is progress, to preserve and remember the knowledge we already have, so that others can build on our legacies. History is important. To the extent that Irene inspired generations of women activists, she stands with the rest of the "women of achievement" she wanted remembered.
