Mary Ward Wolkonsky: The Best of Everything
At a time when women’s opportunities were severely limited, Mary Ward Wolkonsky used her wealth and intelligence to make Chicago more cosmopolitan. But the times and the rules of her husbands' corporate jobs limited Mary’s work to volunteer boards, not the boardroom. Those who knew Mary point to her vision and forceful character, and  also to her drive to improve the lives of women everywhere. Executive Producers: Melissa Harris and Mary Schmich Writer/Host: Mary Schmich Producer: Bill Healy Editors: Cate Cahan and Mark Jacob Sound Designer/Audio Engineer: Libby Lussenhop Associate Producer/Dialogue Editor: Chijioke Williams Music Director/Composer: Chris Walz For more information, visit divisionstreetrevisited.com.
