Harriett Iglauer, civic and social leader
Harriett S. Iglauer, longtime Wyoming resident active in social, political and charitable causes, died Jan. 13 at the Evergreen Retirement Community.
The South Bend, Ind., native received her bachelor's and master's degrees in social work from the University of Chicago.
She came to Cincinnati in 1959 and became active in the work of the League of Women Voters. She served as president from 1964-68, then as the statewide LWV's program chair for government structures and as vice president for programs.
She chaired a number of study committees focused on the problems of city and county government. Mrs. Iglauer was the second recipient of the League's Martha Taft Service Award in 1989.
As a medical social worker, Mrs. Iglauer worked at the Family Service Association of Cincinnati for many years. She supervised graduate social work students, a position she called 'the most rewarding thing I did in social work.'
'My mother was a woman very much ahead of her time,' said her son, Bruce Iglauer of Chicago. 'She graduated from the University of Chicago before World War II. She was a working woman, very active in the community, not the traditional stay-at-home mom of the 1950s.
'She was the most ethical and honest person I have ever known in my life. She had a very dry sense of humor and was always able to laugh at herself. As a parent, she was an inspiration.'
Mrs. Iglauer served for 20 years on the board of the Children's Psychiatric Hospital and was a member of the boards of the Association of Home Care Agencies and the Philada Senior Citizens' Center. She was active with the Workum Foundation, which provides scholarships to exceptional social service students.
