Muriel Fox
Muriel Fox (born February 3, 1928) is an American public relations executive who in 1966 co-founded the National Organization for Women (NOW) and led the communications effort that introduced the modern women's movement to the media of the world. She has remained active as a feminist organizer, speaker, writer, editor and events chair. She was a co-founder and ongoing leader of the NOW Legal Defense and Education Fund (now called Legal Momentum); and she currently chairs Veteran Feminists of America. As an ambassador from the women's movement to the business community, she has raised many millions of dollars for feminist causes. ==Early life and education== Fox was born in Newark, New Jersey. Her parents were grocer Morris Fox and housewife Anne Rubenstein. She stated at a Mother's Day rally for the ERA in 1980 that her mother's unhappiness as a housewife was a major inspiration for her activism in the feminist movement. She was graduated from Weequahic High School in Newark and for two years attended Rollins College in Winter Park, Florida. At Rollins she became a string correspondent for United Press, covering events such as the Conference on the Atomic Bomb and World Government. She transferred to Barnard College in New York City, where she majored in American Studies and graduated Phi Beta Kappa and summa cum laude. After graduation she worked as an advertising copywriter for Sears Roebuck in New York; then as a publicist for Tom Jefferson & Associates in Miami, Florida, where she headed the Dade County re-election campaign of U.S. Senator Claude Pepper and helped elect Miami Mayor William Wolfarth. She married Shepard G. Aronson, M.D. in 1955. During a 48-year-marriage until his 2003 death they had two children (Dr. Eric Aronson and Dr. Lisa Aronson Fontes) and three grandchildren.
