Amelia Earhart
Keeping with the spirit of focusing on inspirational innovative women, Only ITGIRLS celebrates Amelia Earhart this
month.
Throughout Earhart’s childhood, she aspired to a future career. She kept a scrapbook of newspaper clippings about
successful women in predominantly male-oriented fields, including film direction and production, law, advertising,
management and mechanical engineering.
After one short flight in an airplane, she knew she had to fly. She worked various jobs such as photographer, truck
driver and stenographer to raise enough money for flying lessons.
Earhart was the first woman to cross the Atlantic ocean by airplane (1928), the second person and first woman to fly
solo across the Atlantic (1932), the first person to fly solo across the Pacific between California and Hawaii (1935), and
the first woman to compete in the National Air Races in Cleveland, Ohio (1935). She also set a number of speed and
altitude records and was awarded numerous high level honors and awards from American and Foreign dignitaries. On
July 2, 1937, Earhart and navigator Fred Noonan disappeared over the Pacific Ocean during one of the final legs of
their equatorial round the world flight. Had they finished the crossing Earhart would have been only the second person
to complete such a journey and the first woman ever to do so.
The mystery of Earhart's disappearance continues to intrigue the public and to generate scores of books, articles, and
films.
