Why would you add a bunch of useless info on there not being Women architects but not have anything about her work to change it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.121.64.7 (talk) 17:15, 9 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@208.121.64.7: Per Wikipedia rules, we can only add to the article facts that are clearly stated in the sources we can find. The facts that she surveyed women in architecture in the U.S. in 1958, and was was a member and officer of more than one organization for women architects, both indicate she was interested in the issue. I don't have easy access to the Art, Design & Architecture Museum or Schlesinger Library but someone who does might look in the papers there donated by Connor, there is probably some good material that could be added to this article. We would all welcome such additions. --Krelnik (talk) 15:51, 28 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
