Linda Kerber’s Path From Brooklyn to Iowa History Star
Linda Kerber, daughter of immigrants, built a landmark career in citizenship and gender studies at the University of Iowa. She credits family hardship, education access, and support from colleagues for shaping her work and her 1998 award winning No Constitutional Right to Be Ladies. Kerber valued Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s input and interviews, mourns the justice's death, and vows to join rising female voices in defending democracy.
