Ladies Of Lulu: Books For Women's History Month

By Paul@Lulu / March 21, 2019

March is Women’s History Month! To celebrate the incredible women who use Lulu, we’re featuring a selection from the Ladies of Lulu today. Enjoy these books by women creators and featuring a variety of themes.

Women’s History Month began as a national observance in the 1980s as Women’s History Week and grew into a month-long series of events to honor and recognize the variety of ways women have contributed to American history. These events also include International Women’s Day, a global day that began in 1911 and continues to inspire people to take action to advance gender parity. At Lulu, we are continually inspired by our very own President and COO, Kathy Hensgen. We are committed to creating an inclusive environment and we celebrate women in business every day.
