Virginia Mathews : ウィキペディア英語版 | Virginia Mathews Virginia Winslow Hopper Mathews (1925-2011) was a literacy advocate and author. Mathews, the daughter of American Indian author John Joseph Mathews, co-founded the American Indian Library Association (AILA). She also helped develop Sesame Street while serving as a consultant to Children's Television Workshop, and she promoted activities to support literacy through libraries. ==Early life and education==
Mathews graduated from the Beard School (now Morristown-Beard School) in Orange, NJ in 1942. After high school, she took college courses at Goucher College, the University of Geneva, and Columbia University. In 2004, Morristown-Beard School awarded Mathews their Distinguished Alumni Award. 〔(Distinguished Alumni: 2004 - Virginia Hopper Mathews - 1942 ) "Virginia has been on an ongoing crusade for literacy since her graduation from the Beard School. She has served as a project director including the US Department of Education, the Endowments for both Arts and Humanities as well as the Department for Health and Human Services, the Department of the Interior, the Office of Economic Opportunity and the Library of Congress. Never forgetting her American Indian roots, Virginia also took part in the First White House Conference on Libraries and Information Services in 1979, fighting for funds for libraries on Indian reservations. Her passion for children's education led her to serve as a consultant in the early stages of Sesame Street's development and to write the Sesame Street Parent Guide." 〕
