Maura McNiel
Maura McNiel (born April 11, 1921) is an American feminist whose actions paved the way for women's studies, modern social work, advocacy on behalf of abused women, promotion of the Equal Rights Amendment, and passage of Title IX. McNiel was active for over forty years in the Dallas women's movement.
==Early life==
Maura McNiel was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota on April 11, 1921 where she learned the importance of individual rights from the integration of Minneapolis area schools. In 1941, McNiel attended University of Minnesota in Minneapolis. Moving to the Dallas area in the early 1950s, she became active within Dallas political and feminist groups, and was instrumental in the founding of the Women's Center of Dallas (now closed).
An ardent and early adopter of feminism in the 1960s, McNiel joined several women’s groups focused on expanding women’s roles and eliminating prevalent stereotypes. She became a member of the National Organization for Women and People for the American Way, seeking to expand her opportunities in the working world as a recent college graduate. Growing up in the 1950s and 1960s, McNiel witnessed changes like desegregation, which motivated her to improve the rights and benefits of the disenfranchised.
She married Thomas H. McNiel on February 1, 1952. They were divorced in Dallas on July 16, 1991 for unknown reasons.
