Utah’s legislature recently voted to send a statue of Dr. Martha Hughes Cannon to represent the state in the U.S. Capitol’s Statuary Hall. Just who was Mattie Cannon, as she was known, and why does she matter today? Defeating her own husband in an election, Cannon became the first female state senator in the nation a quarter-century before most U.S. women could even vote. Our guest, Constance L. Lieber, explores the life of this remarkable woman in her recently released biography, Dr. Martha Hughes Cannon: Suffragist, Senator, Plural Wife, and in this episode with Signature Books director Barbara Jones Brown.
