Anna Jarvis, founder of Mother's Day
A student is interested in information about Anna Jarvis, the founder of Mother's Day, for her artist's book. The RISD Library has the book Consumer Rites: The Buying & Selling of American Holidays by Leigh Eric Schmidt. The Brown Library has Mother's day, ... official program by Anna Jarvis herself, and Encyclopedia Britannica Online has an article about her and how the holiday began. WorldCat (FirstSearch) turned up several sources about Anna Jarvis as well, by using "Jarvis, Anna" in the subject line.
