A Cosmopolitan Best Nonfiction Book of 2024 "Ms. Satow''s carefully researched book is compulsively readable: I found myself dashing through it like a novel. She portrays the women with verve; we get a glimpse into their lives, as well as a sense of what it was like at each of these retail meccas." -- The Wall Street Journal "Masterful. . . An essential read for anyone who loves New York history and the stories of complicated, brilliant women, Satow''s book is enthralling from start to finish. She brings the glorious department stores of the past to vivid life while offering compassionate, nuanced portraits of those who ran the show." --Fiona Davis, New York Times bestselling author of The Spectacular "Deliciously detailed and impeccably researched, a gripping and glamorous examination of the women who were the life force of what remains a beating heart of American culture: the department store. An exuberant read! I truly loved this book." --Denise Kiernan, New York Times bestselling author of The Girls of Atomic City and The Last Castle "These women were the business powerhouses and advertising savants you never heard of. They understood how to elevate style, capture the public''s imagination, and make money at the same time and in a man''s world. If you liked Mad Men then you''ll love When Women Ran Fifth Avenue ." --#1 New York Times bestselling author Kate Andersen Brower, author The Residence and First Women "American history at its best." --Laurence Leamer, New York Times bestselling author of Capote''s Women "In When Women Ran Fifth Avenue , Julie Satow shows how a trio of forthright female retailers transformed New York''s grand old department stores into dynamic, modern emporiums, and, in turn, vitalized America''s burgeoning fashion industry. A delightful spin through 20th-century Manhattan, and a fitting tribute to these formidable and long-overlooked business leaders." --Dana Thomas, author of the New York Times bestseller, Deluxe: How Luxury Lost Its Luster "By taking us inside the gilded department store revolving doors in When Women Ran Fifth Avenue , Julie Satow transports us to an era filled with designers, artists, and celebrities. In this fascinating and glamorous trip back in time, we are introduced to the women behind the scenes who made it all happen -- changing the way we shop, dress, and pursue careers." --Kate Storey, New York Times bestselling author of White House by the Sea "Satow traces the arc of the American woman over the twentieth century as she worked to break down barriers, open up new avenues of work and self-realization and, yes, dress the American public in style. Satow illuminates how it took glamour, grit, and girl power to bring about America''s new era of fashion and commerce." --Allison Pataki, New York Times bestselling author of Finding Margaret Fuller "Illuminating" --Kirkus "Julie Satow intertwines the personal and the political, the financial and the aesthetic in this portrait of an iconic era of American history. Its lively character studies, delicious pop culture scenes, and thorough research illuminate the women at the very center of a contradictory moment: at once traditional and liberated, hopeful and tough." --Julia Cooke, author of Come Fly the World: The Jet-Age Story of the Women of Pan Am "Julie Satow dives deep into a forgotten era to unveil the gilded world of modern American department stores. With a historian''s precision and a storyteller''s charm, she brings to life three formidable women who not only shaped an industry but also defied societal expectations. Satow''s narrative unfolds with revelations so striking they''ll make readers gasp. We are reminded of the tenacity and vision of women at the forefront of commerce and culture. It is history at its most captivating, replete with glamour, rivalry, and ambition." --Laurie Gwen Shapiro, author of The Stowaway: A Young Man''s Extraordinary to Antarctica, A Cosmopolitan Best Nonfiction Book of 2024 "Masterful. . .

Synopsis
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - A glittering portrait of the golden age of American department stores and of three visionary women who led them, from the award-winning author of The Plaza . A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: Vogue , Smithsonian, New York Post, and Financial Times "Ms. Satow's carefully researched book is compulsively readable: I found myself dashing through it like a novel. She portrays the women with verve; we get a glimpse into their lives, as well as a sense of what it was like at each of these retail meccas." -- The Wall Street Journal The twentieth century American department store: a palace of consumption where every wish could be met under one roof - afternoon tea, a stroll through the latest fashions, a wedding (or funeral) planned. It was a place where women, shopper and shopgirl alike, could stake out a newfound independence. Whether in New York or Chicago or on Main Street, USA, men owned the buildings, but inside, women ruled. In this hothouse atmosphere, three women rose to the top. In the 1930s, Hortense Odlum of Bonwit Teller came to her husband's department store as a housewife tasked with attracting more shoppers like herself, and wound up running the company. Dorothy Shaver of Lord & Taylor championed American designers during World War II--before which US fashions were almost exclusively Parisian copies--becoming the first businesswoman to earn a $1 million salary. And in the 1960s Geraldine Stutz of Henri Bendel re-invented the look of the modern department store. With a preternatural sense for trends, she inspired a devoted following of ultra-chic shoppers as well as decades of copycats. In When Women Ran Fifth Avenue, journalist Julie Satow draws back the curtain on three visionaries who took great risks, forging new paths for the women who followed in their footsteps. This stylish account, rich with personal drama and trade secrets, captures the department store in all its glitz, decadence, and fun, and showcases the women who made that beautifully curated world go round., NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * A glittering portrait of the golden age of American department stores and of three visionary women who led them, from the award-winning author of The Plaza .
