MURIEL SIEBERT // BUSINESSWOMAN
“She was an American businesswoman who was the first woman to own a seat on the New York Stock Exchange, and the first woman to head one of the NYSE's member firms. She joined the 1,365 male members of the exchange on December 28, 1967. Siebert is sometimes known as the “first woman of finance,” despite being preceded in owning a brokerage by Victoria Woodhull.”

We need to talk about: Muriel Siebert.
The first woman to own a seat on the New York Stock Exchange, Muriel Siebert has rightly earned her title as The First Lady of Wall Street. A groundbreaking female figure in Finance, Siebert was a dedicated advocate for women and minorities in industry and worked tirelessly to promote financial literacy for all. Despite never graduating from university, Siebert worked her way up the ranks not only to break into what was a spectacularly male dominated workplace, but to eventually become Superintendent of Banks for the State of New York, during which time not a single bank failed under her. Definitely recommend watching this quick interview on MAKERS.
Muriel Faye "Mickie" Siebert, an inspiring woman who firmly believed in the truth that companies can never reach their full potential if they "limit their talent pool to the male 50 percent of the population".
A girl after our own heart. OJBit.
They Told Her No Firm Would Pay Her Equally. So She Started Her Own.
Whatever your feelings are toward Wall Street these days, I think most of us can agree that Muriel Siebert, the “First Lady of Wall Street,” was kind of a bad-ass. She helped put a big, fat crack in that ever-present glass ceiling at one of the most notorious boys' clubs. For that, I think her legacy should live on.
