Description

An historical biography about Meta Given (1888-1981) who was born in the Ozarks of Missouri. She had a wildly successful home economics career for 70 years. Meta wrote two very important and successful cookbooks - the "Modern Family Cook Book" published from (1942-1972), and the "Modern Encyclopedia of Cooking" published from (1947-1972). Meta Given wrote a syndicated column for 10 years from 1939-1949 and had her own business from 1933-1949. She was a very successful early pioneering entrepreneur. So many women worked in the field of home economics which began in the late 1800s and can still be found under the title of Family and Consumer Science. Harriet Beecher Stowe and her sister Catharine were early pioneers of the home economics movement in the 1800s, which was made official with the work and efforts of the chemist Ellen Swallow Richards. Meta Given is one of the many forgotten women who taught, experimented, studied, photographed, and wrote about home economics in books, magazine articles, newspaper columns and gave demonstrations. She was just about forgotten until Danette Bishop Mondou became curious like so many other owners of her famous books. Curious as to who was Meta Given, what were all her accomplishments and why did history ignore her existence when she died in 1981 until today. Only one newspaper marked her passing in 1981, thanks to the efforts of Jane Nickerson New York Times Food Editor from 1942-1957. Danette Mondou would like to correct this wrong for her if possible. Mondou has honored Meta Given's work, life and times with this very important biography about Given's many accomplishments. Meta Given feed a nation through several world wars economically - read all about it.
