Editor’s note: Earlier this spring, we asked readers to help us compile a list of Colorado’s most influential women. Over the course of two weeks, hundreds of names were submitted to our website in two categories: historical and present-day. We pared those lists down, cleaned them up and then convened a panel to help us narrow it even further. We’ve put together a list of 75 finalists, which you can We’ll highlight their accomplishments in an upcoming edition.
