York’s conscious civic self-fashioning in the eighteenth century was accompanied by an expanding local print industry. Women played an important role in this, particularly Grace White, who established York’s first newspaper in 1719, and Ann Ward, whose business in Coney Street lasted 30 years under her direction.

Join Dr Kaley Kramer as she uncovers the lives and careers of these fascinating York women.
