Biographical History
Writer and feminist Jacqueline Sieyes Bernard attended Vassar College (1939-1941) and the University of Chicago (1941-1942). She married Allen Bernard in 1943; they had a son, Joel, and divorced in 1952. She worked as a reporter for the Washington Post (1945-1946), and as a picture researcher and copywriter. Bernard was the author of two books for children: Journey toward Freedom: The Story of Sojourner Truth, and Voices from the Southwest, in addition to The Children You Gave Us, a history of the Jewish Child Care Association, and Daughter of the Mines. She was active in left-wing politics and the civil rights movement, and campaigned for rights of female prisoners. In 1956 she co-founded Parents Without Partners. In 1983 Bernard was murdered; the case remains unsolved.
