These short biographies in the Great Women in Aviation Series tell the stories of notable women pilots whose passion for flight inspires young and old alike to take to the skies. This 1,300 word monograph is not meant to be a comprehensive history of Neta Snook's life, but it discusses her involvement in aviation, and the positive message she conveys. The main purpose of this biography is to inspire youth to follow their dreams of flight. This will make an excellent source for a book report or other paper.
Mary Neta Snook Southern defied the prevailing social custom of the 1920s, that most women did not work. Furthermore, she had the audacity to open an aviation business on her own! That was not the only convention she defied.
Snook achieved a long list of firsts. She was the first woman aviator in Iowa, first female student accepted at the Curtiss Flying School, in Virginia, first woman to run her own aviation business, and first woman to operate a commercial airfield. Snook became the first woman to enter a "men's" air race at the Los Angeles Speedway, in February 1921. She finished fifth and told the media, "I'm going to fly as cleverly, as audaciously, as thrillingly as any man aviator in the world." However, her only legacy seems to be that she taught Amelia Earhart to fly.
