Phenomenal Woman: The Dora Stockman Story

It was a moment of serendipity while Margaret ORourkeKelly was working on her own campaign for a seat in the Michigan House of Representatives, that she discovered the archival records of Dora HallStockman, the first woman to hold elected state office in Michigan. This began her fascination with this oftenoverlooked historical figure but through HallStockmans plays, stories, poetry, songs and overwhelming contributions to the agricultural community, she has created an intriguing biography of a strong, patriotic woman of God, often ahead of her time, who overcame the constraints of her life and times to make a lasting contribution to American society.
