Ellen S. Woodward was touted as Roosevelt's second most powerful woman appointee. Among women only Eleanor Roosevelt and Frances Perkins could claim more elevated roles in FDR's administration. This long overdue biography traces Woodward's odyssey from the parlors of Mississippi to director of women's work relief under three New Deal agencies.
