Mary S. Hartman is university professor and director of the Institute for Women's Leadership, a consortium of six units based on the Douglass campus. From the early seventies, she joined in creating one of the nation's first Women's Studies programs at Douglass, and in 1973 co-organized the first Berkshire Conference on the History of Women, which has since become the largest inter-disciplinary forum for scholarship in the field.
