Trailblazer Mary Kenner (Innovator)

Mary Beatrice Kenner was born in 1912 and died in 2006. She became an innovator from her childhood, at six years only, Marry had an idea of an invention that could solve their squeaky door whose noise would wake her up every morning as her mother left for work. Mary is mostly known for the notable sanitary belt invention. Notably, she was born from a humble background (she dropped from school due to financial constraints) but Mary managed to save enough money from her odd jobs to file the elastic sanitary belt invention. Its purpose was to hold sanitary napkins in place. It was a better solution as it prevented leaks compared to the rags which were used at the time. The invention was recognized by many feminine hygiene companies.
