The Home Public Market in Kansas City

Ruth Handler worked in her brother's office all through middle school, junior high and then on to restaurant work when her sister and her husband bought a restaurant. Ruth had met her boyfriend Izzy Handler at a high school dance and it was on the sister Sarah massively disapproved of him. I can see why she wanted her to marry a doctor or a lawyer. Is ambition to be an artist in an era where the men have to be the breadwinner and what's an artist going to do but keep you in the poor house?
