Frances C. Galt explores the role of trade unions and women’s activism in the British film and television industries in this important contribution to debates around gender inequality.

The first book to examine archival material which has not been analysed by other academics, specifically Committee on Equality meeting minutes and ephemera, as well as new oral history interviews conducted by the author with ACTT women activists.

Frances C. Galt completed her PhD on women and trade unions in the British film and television industries at De Montfort University in 2018. She has taught at Sheffield and De Montfort Universities and is currently a Teaching Associate at Newcastle University.
