For the past several years Judy Singleton, a businesswoman and former editor of Indianapolis Woman magazine, has been researching the achievements of Hoosier women for a book she plans to publish in the future. More than 250 women who were the first to break a gender barrier in the state or across the country responded. The photo on the cover of the 2000 calendar was taken in 1943 at Avenger Field, Sweetwater, Texas, in front of an open cockpit training plane. Shown are World War II Women Air Force Service Pilots Margaret Monroe, Fran Greene, Wilma Morehead, and Indiana Trailblazer Margaret Ray Ringenberg. Photo provided by Margaret Ray Ringenberg. |
