The Women of General Motors

Constance A. Smith

Available on Jul 28, 2022

Contrary to popular opinion, the automotive industry is not a man’s world! Since the early days of General Motors, there have been women—known and unknown—who have had vital roles in design, engineering, manufacturing, and administration. In this follow-up to Damsels in Design, her book on women designers at GM in the 1950s, Constance Smith presents profiles of and interviews with 85 women who have steered the course of General Motors for almost 100 years. The women featured include Bonnie Lemm, the first woman design engineer at GM; Helene Rother, the first woman product designer hired by GM’s Styling Department in the 1940s; Suzanne Vanderbilt, the holder of numerous industrial design patents and the designer of the first adjustable lumbar seat supports; Mary Barra, who became GM’s chair and CEO in 2016; and many more. Meet these remarkable achievers and discover how they took on a male-dominated industry—and triumphed.

Call Congress and Tell Your Lawmakers to Pass the RPM Act

Support for the bipartisan Recognizing the Protection of Motorsports Act (RPM Act), H.R. 3281 and S. 2736, continues to expand each day as members of Congress receive an outpouring of support for the bill from racers and the motorsports community. It’s clear the letters SAN members have sent are being noticed on Capitol Hill and are making a difference (109 members of the House and 18 Senators have cosponsored the RPM Act).

If you’ve already sent a letter to Congress about the RPM Act, please follow up by making a short call to their office to voice your support for the bill. SEMA has made it easy to call your elected officials by using the following link—phone numbers for your lawmakers’ offices and talking points are included:

CALL CONGRESS NOW

The RPM Act must be enacted into law to guarantee your right to modify street cars, trucks, and motorcycles into dedicated race vehicles. It is imperative that lawmakers continue to be reminded of the importance of passing the RPM Act.

This Effort is Supported by the Following Organizations: SEMA, Peformance Racing Industry and SEMA Action Network.

AACA Museum, Inc. Announces

The Passing of

WILLIAM H 'BILL' SMITH

The AACA Museum, Inc. is saddened to announce the passing of one of its primary founders: William H. “Bill” Smith. “On behalf of the entire Museum Community, our volunteers, Board members, and donors, I express condolences to Bill’s family and the loss to the hobby,” said Jeffrey Bliemeister, Museum Executive Director.

“Bill was larger-than-life. He accomplished so much yet did it in a way without seeking attention to himself. He was a true gentleman,” continued Bliemeister.

Bill was involved in the old car hobby from an early age, buying, restoring, and modifying vehicles of all types. A native of the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton area and a US Navy Veteran, he rose to national prominence when he became Executive Director of the Hershey, PA-based Antique Automobile Club of America, a position he held for 17 years. Under his tenure and leadership, the Club grew in size and scope, forming the AACA Museum and AACA Library and Research Center. He also served as president of all three organizations.

Bill was an active member of various professional organizations, such as SEMA and ARMO, and received numerous awards, including the prestigious Mequiar’s Person of the Year, in 2005. While he was proud of the honors he received, the people he met and worked with mattered most. His list of friends and supporters was a veritable “who’s who” of the automotive hobby. “It didn’t matter if you were a world-famous celebrity, an owner of a multi-million-dollar collection, or a stranger just met at a car show, Bill treated everyone with the same warmth and respect,” remembers Bliemeister. “He was a true ambassador for our hobby, and he will be greatly missed.”

In 2019, the Museum created a recognition program for those who have made noteworthy contributions toward the institution’s advancement, entitled the William H. Smith Fellowship. On Wednesday, October 6th, this year’s William H. Smith Fellows class will be inducted at our annual Night at the Museum gala.

Bill was preceded in death by his wife, Jeanne. Part of their joint legacy is memorialized in the Museum’s Rotunda, which bears their names. “Fall Hershey,” the world’s most celebrated swap meet and automotive gathering, saw Bill in his element. The Museum will honor his memory with a special week-long lobby display, including the 1959 Chevrolet El Camino that he restored to award-winning status.

A memorial service celebrating the life of William H. "Bill" Smith will be held on Wednesday, September 29th at 4:00 PM in the Museum's Smith Rotunda. It is open to all. In addition, an anonymous gift was made to start a scholarship in Bill's name. More information on the memorial service and scholarship is forthcoming.

The AACA Museum, Inc. has been and remains an independent 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, not affiliated with the Antique Automobile Club of America.
