About us
Connecting engaged feminists who care about solutions and action. Minnesota Women's Press offers authentic community-based journalism that amplifies and inspires the stories, action steps, and leadership of powerful, everyday women (cis and trans) and nonbinary people. The Twin Cities-based publication was launched by Mollie Hoben and Glenda Martin in 1985 to publish a biweekly newspaper dedicated to telling stories about Minnesota women, by women, for women. For more than 35 years, Norma Smith Olson and Kathy Magnuson were co-owners, transitioning in February 2009 to a monthly magazine format. On December 14, 2017, the magazine was bought by Mikki Morrissette, who serves as the editor. The Minnesota Women's Directory is an affiliated annual publication that connects readers with women in business and women-centered organizations. WomensPress.com and @MNWomensPress on Facebook, LinkedIn and Instagram connects readers with the magazine's stories, directory listings, advertising and news of interest to Minnesota women. The magazine offers three newsletters: Weekly, Ecolution, Transforming Justice (new!)
