Emma passed away late in 1999 but her legacy will live on through every woman auctioneer in the United States. Emma was the first woman auctioneer to be accepted into the National Auctioneers Association. In Sold! to the Lady in the Green Hat Emma takes you on a journey through the beginning of women in the auction business and shares many true life stories from her beginning years as a auctioneer. Adversities of being a woman in the auction business were many, she even lost an auction from a bank because the competition ( a man ) told the banker she shouldn't have the auction because he had a family to feed and needed to do the auction himself! Emma teaches many lessons in this book; struggles of women for equality in the business industry, determination, business morals, and the need for humor in life. I strongly recommend Sold! to the Lady in the Green Hat to any reader!
