Marjorie Shuler

Marjorie Shuler (November 10, 1888 – 1977)[1] was an American publicist and author for the woman suffragists from New York.

[1] Additionally, Shuler wrote a memoir of her flying trip around the world, the first ever by a woman, titled A Passenger to Adventure (Appleton-Century, 1939).

[3] Shortly after, she voiced "there has been opposition to college training instead of the mechanic’s bench for the boy, to domestic science school instead of the family cookstove for the girl".

[3] As described in Joseph Dewey's encyclopedia article on Shuler, she and the other young woman suffragists had to learn how to negotiate and attract both sides of the political aisle to get things done.

Shuler was in attendance for the signing of the Senate Suffrage Amendment on June 4, 1919, along with Mrs. Helen Gardener, Mrs. Ida Husted Harper, Mrs. Harriet Taylor Upton, and Miss Mary G.

"[4] She was asked by a reporter for a message for Australian women, to which she responded, "The most important thing is to think rightly.

Shuler married Dr. Frank F. Charles on June 10, 1939, in New York City, who graduated from University of Heidelberg and became a biologist and writer.

Shuler's close relationship with Mrs. Roosevelt aided in her attempts to help asylum-seekers fleeing Europe from Nazi Germany.
