From the 1800s through the 20th century, women have continually broken barriers in finance. On a recent episode of Inside the ICE House, Trailblazing Women Who Transformed Finance and Created a New Wall Street, author and Untapped New York Founder Michelle Young discusses the female firsts that helped transform the culture, practices, and leadership of global finance.
Hosted by Anna Melo, Curator of the NYSE Historical Archive and Interactive Experiences, and Dave D’Onofrio, NYSE Archive Manager, this History Series episode explores the stories of such unforgettable figures as Victoria Woodhull (the "bewitching broker"), Hetty Green (the "Witch of Wall Street," America's first value investor), Isabel Benham ("Madame Railroad," the first female partner of a Wall Street Bond House), and Muriel Siebert (the first women to own a seat on the NYSE).
