This month’s book, A Woman in Business: The Life of Beatrice Fox Auerbach by Virginia Hale, tells the story of a self-effacing, diminutive woman from a retailing family who became the chief executive of the largest privately owned department store in the country. Her accomplishments were all the greater because she was a woman in a man’s world (from Amazon.com). Join us on March 12 at 11:15 a.m.
