Mary Anderson, the pioneering woman behind one of the most essential inventions in automotive history: the windshield wiper.

Journey with us back to the early 1900s, a time when driving was a perilous endeavor, especially in inclement weather. Learn how Mary Anderson, an astute real estate developer from Birmingham, Alabama, transformed her frustration during a snowy New York City trip into a groundbreaking invention that would forever change the driving experience.

We'll explore Mary’s early life, her diverse career, and the challenges she faced as a woman innovator in a male-dominated society. Discover how her inventive spirit led her to secure a patent for the windshield wiper in 1903, a device that initially met with skepticism but eventually became standard equipment on automobiles worldwide.
