Gloria Jacobs, The Feminist Press at CUNY

Gloria Jacobs became the executive director of the Feminist Press after many years as the executive editor of Ms. Magazine. She is the co-author of Re-making Love: The Feminization of Sex, and her articles have appeared in many publications including the New York Times, the New York Daily News, the Guardian, Mother Jones, Working Mother and New York Woman. As a consultant for the United Nations, Jacobs edited and wrote several major reports on women around the world, particularly during times of war, conflict, and peace negotiations, as well as the impact of HIV/AIDS on women in developing countries. She has also been a board member and chair of several organizations. Ms. Jacobs records an excerpt from a speech by Ernestine Rose on the property rights of married women, given at the New York State Women’s Rights Convention in 1853.
