- Summary
- Morning session of a day-long symposium that highlighted, explored and celebrated the contributions of women as ethnographic fieldworkers and scholars.

It featured presentations by contemporary researchers who are currently engaged in both national and international fieldwork and included brief presentations by American Folklife Center staff about important fieldwork collections in the Center's archives that were created by women and are too often overlooked.
