>The offspring of a blue blood New England family, Perkins, a progressive activist and suffragette, was the first woman in a Cabinet position as she served as FDR's Secretary of Labor for his entire presidency. She endured frequent sexist jibes, including the joke that the president had "kept her in labor for years." The Department of Labor's headquarters building in Washington D.C. is named the Frances Perkins Building in honor of her.
