Gladys Stone Wright:
Promoting Women on the Band Podium
The American Bandmasters Association Research Center at the University of Maryland has created a wonderful display and YouTube Video celebrating the legacy of Gladys Stone Wright. Below is a link sharing the online video. In the video, Gladys is recognized for being one of the founders of the Woman Band Directors International.
By uniting and working together, we are able to help each other in many ways - socially and professionally.
