Sisterly Love: Women of Note in Pennsylvania History is a collection of biographical sketches of women who have made or are making significant contributions to Pennsylvania history. The authors of each chapter span across several disciplines and colleges in the Philadelphia area through SEPCHE, the Southeast Pennsylvania Consortium of Higher Education. In these essays you will meet artists, political leaders, entrepreneurs, teachers, computer experts, environmentalists, abolitionists, and more. Some of these women are well-known; many are not. Yet each has helped to shape the state of Pennsylvania in compelling and meaningful ways.
Marie A. Conn is a professor of religious studies at Chestnut Hill College. She is the author of Noble Daughters: Unheralded Women in Western Christianity, 13th to 18th Centuries (2000) and C.S. Lewis and Human Suffering: Light among the Shadows (2008). She is the co-editor of four books of essays with Thérèse McGuire published by University Press of America.
Thérèse McGuire, SSJ, is a professor emerita of art at Chestnut Hill College. She is an expert on Saint Hildegard of Bingen giving many talks in the United States and abroad about the woman’s life and her work.
