Episode: History Series: Trailblazing Women Who Transformed Finance and Created a New Wall Street
Description: Women have long shaped Wall Street—even when history tried to write them out. NYSE curator Anna Melo goes Inside the ICE House with archivist Dave D’Onofrio and author Michelle Young to spotlight the trailblazing women who broke barriers in finance, from the 1800s through the 20th century. They explore unforgettable figures like Victoria Woodhull, Hetty Green, Isabel Benham, and Muriel Siebert, whose grit and innovation redefined what was possible on Wall Street. Together, they reveal how these female-firsts helped transform the culture, practices, and leadership of global finance.
