Hello,

Amanda Menking at the University of Washington did a lot of interviews.
There are some other people who have done interviews - perhaps 5 have
posted projects like this.

I am not sure where any archive of women's issues research is kept in
Wikipedia. But have you talked with Amanda?

If it has not happened already, perhaps it is time to set up a research
archive on this topic.

yours,
