Recently my favorite magazine for girls-“New Moon Girls”-asked my advice on how to find landmarks to historic women. My answers, “Find Her! Secret Sheroes,” are in the March/April edition. Sidebars include information about the “Put Women on the Map” app; three young women who lobbied to get a bridge in Dublin, Ireland, named after Rosie Hackett, an activist woman; and a group of women in Paris who rectified the fact that fewer that 3 % of the streets are named for women. (One night they covered 60 signs with the names of historic women.)
