The Santa Monica Public Library is pleased to present “Out Of A Woman’s Life — A Newspaper,” a Women’s History Month celebration of journalistic pioneer Mary Baker Eddy and the paper she founded, The Christian Science Monitor.

Mary Baker Eddy, an already successful author, publisher and religious leader in 1908, was 87 when she established an international daily newspaper, which in her words was “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind” in its coverage of world events. Her establishment of the Monitor, at a time when women were permitted a very limited role in the public arena, serves as a significant accomplishment.

As the Pulitzer Prize-winning Monitor approaches its 100th year of publication, Eddy represents a very fitting focus for this year’s Women’s History Month theme: “Generations of Women Moving History Forward.”

The Christian Science Monitor’s Los Angeles Bureau Chief, Daniel Wood and Arts & Culture Correspondent Gloria Goodale will be the featured speakers.

This program is free and all ages are welcome. Seating is first come, first served. This event will take place on Sunday, March 4, at 2 p.m. in the Main Library’s Martin Luther King, Jr. Auditorium, 601 Santa Monica Blvd.

For more information, contact the Santa Monica Public Library at (310) 458-8600.
