Marianne A. Ferber (January 30, 1923 – May 11, 2013)〔http://news.illinois.edu/ii/13/0516/deaths.html〕 was an American feminist economist and the author of many books and articles on the subject of women's work, the family, and the construction of gender. She held a Ph.D. from the University of Chicago. She was most noted for her work as co-editor with Julie A. Nelson of the influential anthology ''Beyond Economic Man: Feminist Theory and Economics'' and her book ''The Economics of Women, Men and Work'', co-authored with Francine D. Blau and Anne Winkler. Highly regarded for her role as a central figure in the development of feminist economics, Ferber expanded the literature on women’s presence in the economy. She was one of the first people to confront Gary Becker’s work on economics and the family. ==Background== Ferber was born in Czechoslovakia and received her B.A. at McMaster University in Hamilton, Canada and her Ph.D. at the University of Chicago. Her husband, Robert Ferber, was hired by the University of Illinois to teach in the economics department in 1948, but strict nepotism rules at Illinois prevented her from being hired as a full-time professor. Yet the economics department did hire her on a semester-by-semester basis because of a severe teacher shortage. In 1971, she was promoted from lecturer to assistant professor. In 1979, she became a full professor.〔“Professor Marianne Ferber Honored.” 1994. Commerce InSight.
