Notes:
On the eve of America's entry into the war, seven women of the theater converged to discuss the possibility of forming an organization to aid in war relief. Two weeks later, people representing all segments of the theater, including the internationally famous, seamstresses, stagehands and producers, packed the Hudson Theater in New York to lean how they could contribute their expertise and time. The Stage Women's War Relief was born and began operation within a few weeks. The organization established workrooms for sewing, food collection centers, and a canteen on Broadway for servicemen. It also began sending entertainers to perform for the troops. Speakers, trained by the organization, were very successful in promoting the Liberty Loan Campaigns.
