This is the story of a girl from Pittsburgh who proved her mettle one front page headline after another.

Nelly Bly became a journalist when newspaper editors didn’t want to hire women. 

She took on prickly social issues. She went undercover when undercover was only “for the boys.” This is the story of how one woman changed the world.
