Caroline Haslett
Dame Caroline Harriet Haslett, DBE, JP (17 August 1895, Worth (now in Crawley, West Sussex) – 4 January 1957, Bungay, Suffolk) was a British electrical engineer and electricity industry administrator.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work= Oxford Dictionary of National Biography )〕
She was the first secretary of the Women's Engineering Society, and the founder and editor of its journal, ''The Woman Engineer''.〔'Dame Caroline Haslett: Outstanding Woman Engineer', ''The Times'', 5 January 1957〕 She was co-founder and first director of the Electrical Association for Women, which pioneered such 'wonders', as they were described in contemporary magazines, as the "All-Electric House" in Bristol in 1935. Her particular interest was electricity, and how this might benefit women by liberating them from household drudgery. In the early 1920s, few houses had electric light or heating, let alone electrical appliances; the National Grid was not yet in existence.
==Early life==
Caroline Haslett was born at Worth, Sussex, the eldest daughter of Robert Haslett, a railway signal fitter and activist for the co-operative movement. After school in Haywards Heath, Haslett joined the Cochran Boiler Company as a secretary.〔 Managing to transfer to the works during the war, she acquired a basic engineering training in London and Annan from 1914 to 1918, and from that time became something of a pioneer for women in the electrical and professional world.
