Lillian Moller GilbrethLillian Moller Gilbreth (May 24, 1878 - January 2, 1972) was one of the first working female engineers and PhD. She and her husband Frank Bunker Gilbreth were pioneers in the field of industrial engineering. Their interest in time studies, etc. may have had something to do with the fact that they had an extremely large family. The books Cheaper By The Dozen and Belles on Their Toes are the story of their family life... and they did indeed have twelve children. In 1984, the United States Postal Service issued a stamp in her honor. - Gilbreth, Lillian, As I Remember: An Autobiography, Engineering & Management Press, 1998, ISBN 0898061865
