Leading Lady Edna Marie Bolz Hussman is considered to be a “Radium Girl”. She worked for U.S. Radium Corporation in Orange, New Jersey for two years as a dial painter. She became the fourth person to pass away from radium poisoning. Edna was one of five women who participated in a groundbreaking lawsuit against Radium Dial in 1927, which was settled out of court in 1928, providing the women a settlement, annuity, legal and medical expenses.
Learn about Edna and the other dial painters. Collect each paper doll in the Leading Ladies Radium Girls series. The artwork created for Edna’s paper doll is my artistic interpretation of her likeness based on the sources available to me. Please note that the sources and information regarding the Radium Girls contains graphic content pertaining to what happened to the dial painters, and caution should be heeded when read and viewed by young audiences. It is important to learn our history, even when it is difficult to share and learn.
The Leading Ladies Radium Girls series is a capsule collection created to honor the many women who lost their lives and health to radium. These women bravely shared the truth of what happened to them. Many were never compensated and spent years of their lives experiencing health complications due to exposure to radium from time working at U.S. Radium and Radium Dial.

The Revolutionary Women Series is a capsule collection created for America 250. It explores the early settlement of the United States, highlighting selected women and folk heroines. This series explores delicate and difficult themes, while providing historical insight into the lives of women and girls that is often not taught. It is important that we learn it, have a better understanding of it, and learn from it.
