Abstract

Mary van Kleeck (1883-1972) began her social work career with investigations into the conditions of women's work. This led to her concern for all workers. She widened her scope into research in industrial conditions for all workers as director of Industrial Studies with the Russell Sage Foundation. She was a woman in the man's world of industrial research and respected for the professionalism and impartiality she brought to her work. Her writings reflect her varied interests: concern for women workers, need for economic planning, cyclic unemployment, and protective legislation for women.
