TOP WOMEN APPOINTMENTS
IN THE EISENHOWER ADMINISTRATIONS
(1953 - 1959)
During two Administrations, President Dwight D. Eisenhower has
honored women by 217 high-level appointments to the diplomatic
service, the federal establishment, and policy-making committees,
commissions and boards
217
Because certain individuals have received two or more appoint-
ments the number of women so designated comes to 175.
President Eisenhower, according to this record, has appointed
more women to high-level positions than any other Chief
Executive in the nation's history.
In addition, during the Eisenhower Administrations women have
been accorded notable recognition by Cabinet officials and
Agency heads. Any list of such key staff appointments changes
frequently; some 190 women are shown on the current roster.
190
For example, Secretary of Defense Neil H. McElroy has named
45 outstanding women from all fields to serve on the Defense
Advisory Committee on Women in the Services (see page 20), while
49 others have been selected by the Commission on Civil Rights
for membership on State Advisory Committees (see page 22).
All told, at lease 407 women have been given top recognition during
the two Eisenhower Administrations. They are listed on the follow-
ing pages. Political affiliation, wherever the information is
available, is indicated by (R) and (D) before the name.
