Elsie Chamberlain was a leading figure in British broadcasting and
religious life. She was a pioneer in many areas: the first woman
chaplain to the armed forces; the first nonconformist minister to
marry an Anglican clergyman; the first woman producer in the
religious broadcasting department of the BBC and the first woman to
present the daily service on the radio. Her broadcasting accustomed
many listeners to the idea of a woman leading public worship. And
she became the first woman to occupy the chair of the
Congregational Union of England and Wales and almost certainly the
first woman anywhere in the world to head a major denomination.
Elsie Chamberlain is the first full biography and a critical
appreciation of this exceptional woman. Using original church and
BBC archive sources, the book tells the story of a woman who did
more than any other to change the way Christian women ministers are
viewed.
