Biographical History

Harriett Reid, a lawyer in Springfield, Ill., from 1920 to 1937 served as an arbitrator on the Illinois Industrial Commission, a civil service position dealing with workmen's compensation cases. In 1920 the Illinois State Civil Service Commission had rerfused to hire Reid because she was a woman; her friend Catharine Waugh McCulloch helped her to fight the decision and win her appointment.

From the description of Series VII of the Mary Earhart Dillon Collection, 1920-1942 (inclusive). (Harvard University). WorldCat record id: 232008771
