Honouring Kathleen “Kit” Coleman: Interview with Dr. Barbara Freeman
Kathleen “Kit” Coleman, one of Canada’s most successful early presswomen, was a true trailblazer. In a time when women journalists were limited to writing about the female perspective and women’s issues, Kit paved the way for better representation in newsrooms and a more equal standing for Canadian women in other aspects of life.
In this interview, we sit down with Dr. Barbara Freeman, author of Kit’s Kingdom: The Journalism of Kathleen Blake Coleman and Adjunct Research Professor at Carleton University, as she shares her expert knowledge of Kit and her lasting impression on the world of journalism.
