WEBMASTER NOTE: This 2011 Women's History Month feature represents the web site's first attempt at fade-in, fade-out animation. The first try was limited to 18 images to see how the effort fared. Being added to the animation in due course are images selected from suggestions by our cyber visitors (see last paragraph of introduction near the top of the page).
