General Information
The Heritage Column appears in every issue of the Division 35 quarterly newsletter The Feminist Psychologist. The primary aim of the Heritage Column is to highlight and document the role of women in psychology by publishing information about their lives and careers that may not appear elsewhere, thus providing an ongoing source of inspirational, archival, and instructional material on women in psychology. Submissions that feature the lives and careers of women from traditionally underrepresented groups, especially ethnic minority women, are especially encouraged. If you would like to write a Heritage Column, please contact the current Column editor, Alexandra Rutherford, by e-mail (alexr@yorku.ca).
Instructions to Authors

Heritage Columns feature biographical information on distinguished women in psychology’s past and present. When appropriate, authors should emphasize their subject’s relevance and importance for the psychology of women, as well as for psychology more generally. Authors are asked to follow the guidelines of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (5th ed.) in preparing their manuscripts. Subjects of the column should be referred to by their last names (e.g., “For Reese, research, service, and teaching were inseparable” as opposed to “For Ellen, research, service, and teaching were inseparable”). Manuscripts should be no more than 800 words, including references. If the author has published similar material elsewhere, the Column should be significantly different from previously published versions so as not to infringe on copyright policies.
