WASHINGTON, DC (March 1, 2009) - In recognition of Women’s History month, LIOBmedia launches a website, Women in the U.S. Postal System, which explores the fascinating history and lives of female postal workers from the American Revolution to the present.
“LIOBmedia is pleased to be part of a team to provide an opportunity to educate the general public about the significant role of women in American history, especially in the U.S. Postal System,” says Lillie Fujinaga, Creative Director.
Women in the U.S. Postal System website is a new feature in the museum’s online resources section, written by members of the museum’s 2008 intern class. The website features a history of female postal workers as well as a series of oral histories from recent and current employees.
The National Postal Museum is devoted to presenting the colorful and engaging history of the nation’s mail service and showcasing the largest and most comprehensive collection of stamps and philatelic material in the world.
