Biographical History

Josephine Clara Goldmark and Pauline Dorothea Goldmark (1874-1962) were born in Brooklyn, N.Y., two of the eleven children of Regina Wehle and Joseph Goldmark, political refugees from the Revolution of 1848 in Austria. Both sisters graduated from Bryn Mawr, were associated with the National and New York Consumers' Leagues, investigated industrial working conditions particularly for women workers, and were published authors. J. Goldmark researched labor laws on hours of work for her brother-in-law, Supreme Court justice Louis Brandeis, was on the committee investigating the Triangle Shirtwaist Company fire, advocated upgrading the standard of education for nurses, and worked with Florence Kelley in the 1920s to safeguard workers against radium poisoning. P. Goldmark investigated conditions in the canneries in New York State, was assistant director of social research for the Russell Sage Foundation, a member of the industrial board of the N.Y. State Labor Dept. (1913-1915), executive secretary of the Committee on Women in Industry during WWI, manager of the Women's Service Section of the U.S. Railroad Administration (1918-1920) for which she toured the country studying working conditions of women and children, an expert in the research dept. at American Telephone and Telegraph on women's employment and health problems (1919-1939), vice-chair of the N.Y.C. Child Labor Commission, and director of the National Consumers' League.
