In this episode 291, we visit with Meredith Ritchie, author of “Poster Girls,” set in 1943, at Charlotte’s largest wartime employer––the massive and dangerous Shell Assembly Plant. Told from two perspectives, Poster Girls is driven by the true but forgotten events and accomplishments of a diverse group of American women. Military wives and mothers, Maggie Slone and Kora Bell, one white and one black, work together to unify the plant’s workforce, support their families, and bring their husbands home. Paula Martinac, author of “The Ada Decades” and “Testimony” says, “Poster Girls by Meredith Ritchie celebrates the resilience and camaraderie of female munitions workers in Charlotte, N.C., during World War II. You’ll root for these finely crafted characters as they confront the limits placed on women, white and black, and uncover their own hidden skills and ingenuity. A stirring historical novel.” Engage with the show here: https://linktr.ee/CharlotteReadersPodcast Detailed show notes here: https://charlottereaderspodcast.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/charlottereaderspodcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/charlottereaderspodcast/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/charlottereader Charlotte Readers Podcast is a proud member of the Authors on the Air Global Radio Network and the Queen City Podcast Network. #CharlotteReadersPodcast #podcast #literary #literature #instabooks #goodreads #bookstagram #booklover #amreading #bookreview #bookaddict #bookclub #bookobsessed #booknerd #bookaholic #booklife #bookworm #bookgram #booktography #bookblogger #totalbooknerd #bookishfeatures #creativenonfiction #tellyourstory #podcaster #exploreclt #cltagenda #charlotteagenda #704 #cltiscreative #authorsontheair #queencitypodcastnetwork © Charlotte Readers Podcast and Authors on the Air Global Radio Network
