Upton Sinclair: California Socialist, Celebrity Intellectual

Appendix A

183 Appendix A upton sinclair’s women friends This book has attempted to demonstrate the centrality of female friendship in Upton Sinclair’s life. Numerous names of American women activists appear throughout the text.However,a clearer documentation of Sinclair’s friendships with women may be found by listing each of these women with one citation about them or by them. By so doing, I hope to introduce the reader to some extraordinary women who have been omitted from many American History courses and to provide evidence to those familiar with the history of American feminist radicalism that Sinclair was indeed part of this tradition. The women are listed in the order that Sinclair met them or discovered their work.
