This paper aims at presenting an overall portrait of an almost unknown woman. Frances Perkins was both the promoter and instigator of most of the social policies during the Great Depression in the United States, commonly known as «The New Deal». She was also the first woman in US history to gain the status of Cabinet Member, becoming Secretary of Labor for the whole four Roosevelt’s administrations.Citas
