Abstract
This article traces the development of a career in applied anthropology that began in the early days of the feminist movement and in the antiwar movement of the 1960s and 1970s. The story begins with the early marriage and childbearing prescribed during the 1950s, continues to a traditional four‐field education in anthropology, and concludes with a leadership position in a largely male corporate environment. The repeated revision of expectations for women's roles, pressure on academic jobs, and an expanding scope of anthropology in the world at large yielded both challenges and opportunities. This story of one woman's career shares many essential elements with the stories of other female anthropologists from this generation.
