Elmhurst Library Hosts Women Of World War II Program

ELMHURST, IL — Come to the Elmhurst Library and learn more about how women made incredible contributions to the war effort during World War II, including through the American Red Cross Clubmobile program. This club served up doughnuts, coffee, and American girl-next-door friendliness at the front lines in Europe, Southeast Asia, India, and Australia — wherever the troops were found.

The library said Elmhurst author Barb Warner Deane will delve into the roles of American women during World War II and the Clubmobile program on Thursday, March 1 from 7 to 8 p.m. at the Elmhurst Public Library. Her novel, "On The Homefront," will be available for purchase at the end of the program.
