Abstract
Much has been written about the life and works of Helen Marot involving her work as Secretary of the New York branch of the Women’s Trade Union League. Little has been on paper about her influence on educational renewal and progressive education. Yet, throughout the first two decades of the twentieth century, Helen Marot was certainly also involved in educational endeavors. This case study describes the life and educational works of Helen Marot during this period, which have been underreported in the literature. Although this paper will mention and address Marot’s numerous political activities, the authors’ focus is on showing how the early developments in her life pertain to her later educational contributions.
