 Widowed in middle age and scrambling to forge a brand new career in the depths of the Great Depression, in 1932 Caroline Ellis found herself in a burgeoning radio industry that was revolutionizing the world. Through a combination of raw talent and an innate recognition of housewives’ needs, Ellis created an innovative broadcasting style that made her one of the most successful radio homemakers of radio’s Golden Age. Ascending from a regional station in Kansas City to the Midwest’s broadcasting hub of Chicago, Caroline Ellis left an indelible mark on women-oriented radio for more than twenty years.
