of whom i know nothing beyond this. that said as a fully paid up member of the patriarchy it's been interesting as my life's gone by to watch as i see my firsts - female medical consultants, firefighters, bike mechanics etc etc. and i'm so old now i'm meeting the female children of the above at work! (time to retire!).
why is this important? because when i was a father/uncle etc i felt i really needed to be able to show my little women what was possible, not just say it. that said, it's an ongoing process. it's been gladdening to see more female photographers out and about but as yet i only know two female pinhole photographers. sound recording i think i only know one one female sound recordist. and i've never met a female cabinet maker so now i've seen larissa huff i'm waiting for her to appear.
