New book surveys early women PhD’s in math - More than 14 percent of the PhD's awarded in the
United States during the first four decades of the twentieth century went to women, a proportion
not achieved again until the 1980s.
Pioneering Women in American Mathematics: The Pre-1940 PhD's is the result of a study in which
the authors identified all of the American women who earned PhD's in mathematics before 1940.
Extended biographies and bibliographical information are available from the companion website for
the book: www.ams.org/bookpages/hmath-34.

Update from Washington, DC - The President today signed an executive order creating a
White House Council on Women and Girls. The new White House Council is similar to the

Commission on Women is moving forward in Congress. The White House Council and the Presidential
Commission on Women are perfect companions and can work together to improve the future
of women in this country. Be a part of the movement that will participate in this important
initiative as it moves through Congress by signing the petition put forth by WomenCount at
