She was also a fervent supporter of voting reform and the Equal Rights Amendment. ==Life and career== Born in Des Moines, Iowa to David Clinton Kellems and Amanda Louise (née Flint), Kellems received a BA from the University of Oregon in 1918, where she became the only woman on the debate team. She went on to earn a masters degree in economics, and worked towards a PhD at Columbia University and the University of Edinburgh. In 1927, she founded Kellems Cable Grips, Inc. in Connecticut to produce a patented cable grip invented with her brother, Edgar Eugene Kellems.〔 — Cable Grip (1928)〕 The endless-weave grip was an improved version of the wire mesh grip in use at the time to pull, position, route and relieve strain of electrical cables. In 1928, Kellems solicited Queens Electric Light and Power Company and the Brooklyn Edison Company for a total of twenty orders.〔http://hblinfo.com/Kellems.asp Kellems Division of Hubbell Harvey Inc.〕
