Kate Herring Highsmith (1880-1966), journalist and club woman, was an indefatigable Raleigh activist on behalf of the health and welfare of all North Carolinians. Writing principally for the state Health Bulletin and Sunday newspapers, she covered subjects from tuberculosis to marijuana, incarceration to maternity and infant care, libraries to art museums. This collection of some 250 of her essays and press releases is presented by her grandson, D. Kern Holoman.
