520    Most of the workers in advertising, the media, retail, and
       fashion are women. Holding key marketing and advertising 
       positions, women shape the basic promotional appeal of 
       almost every consumer product in America. How did the 
       advertising business go from a handful of women in a man's
       world to women working in virtually every mass consumer 
       goods industry in America in the space of the twentieth 
       century? Ad Women tells the story of how women have risen 
       to the top of the advertising profession. Juliann Sivulka,
       a former marketing communications manager and now an 
       advertising educator, describes how, at the beginning of 
       the twentieth century, the recognition of women as primary
       consumers resulted in the hiring of more women to promote 
       products aimed at the women's market. At that time 
       manufacturers began to emphasize color, fashion, and style,
       while advertising embraced a new language of persuasion 
       aimed at women consumers. Soon agencies were recruiting an
       ensemble of businesswomen-copywriters, product designers, 
       merchandisers, fashion and beauty experts, home economists,
       editors, and publicists. Through close collaboration with 
       manufacturers, mass media, and retailers, they 
       participated in developing strategies to convince women to
       buy goods and wove their selling messages into women's 
       reading, shopping, housework, and leisure activities. --
