Marilla Waite Freeman, was born in Honeoye Falls (New York), on February 21 of 1870, and died in Yonkers (New York), on October 29 of 1961. After obtaining a degree in literature, from University of Chicago, in 1897, Marilla went to be, three years later, one of the first professional librarians in USA. She also became one of the first female lawyers of the country (in 1921), but she never practiced as a lawyer. Her passion was trying to enrich people’s lives with the help of books.
