Portraying Lillian Moller Gilbreth, motion study pioneer and mother of 12 portrayed in the novel, play and film Cheaper By The Dozen, Carol will spin tales of innovators such as “Female Edison” Margaret Knight; film star Hedy Lamarr, whose research led to GPS, WiFi, and Bluetooth technology; and others whose achievements were often ignored, discounted or credited to others.
