Interview with Shirley Lally

Lally worked 40 years at the mill in the predominantly female finishing department, inspecting and counting reams of paper by hand. She was married to another mill worker. At the time of unionization in the late 1960s, she led a group of activist women who rebelled against the mill\u27s practice of laying off women with greater seniority than men, successfully changing seniority policy for women for the better.https://digitalcommons.usm.maine.edu/sd-warren/1047/thumbnail.jp
