Jane Duffus makes a welcome return to PUF with more stories of the women who shaped Bristol’s past. Jane published Volume Three of her series “The Women Who Built Bristol” earlier this year and it contains a brand new set of 250 incredible but overlooked women from Bristol’s past - bringing the grand total across the series up to 750! There’s no shortage of amazingly brilliant women’s stories to share, and those we may hear about include a wartime welder, a suffragist photographer, a market gardening matriarch, a former editor of Vogue, a feminist strongwoman, a globe-trotting astronomer and several shopkeeping sisters who defied the odds.Jane has worked in journalism/publishing for more than 25 years, whether on bestselling newsstand magazines or as the author of seven (count ‘em!) books about social history. Oh… and as of March 2025, she is one of the 20 most rebellious women in Bristol. Make of that what you will!
