Where new oilfields where being erected. They lived in a log cabin. FAMILY: She was the daughter of Esther Ann and Franklin Summer Tarbell he was a teacher and joiner he made wooden oil barrels. Her fathers business with the oil companies and the fields close to home probably led to her interest in the oil industry.

CAREER: Out of college she was a teacher at Poland Union Seminary in Poland Ohio. She taught geology, botany, geometry, and trigonometry. After two years she decided teaching wasn’t for her and she turned to writing. She returned to Pennsylvania and begun to write for the Chautauqua and by 1886 she was the editor. In 1890 she moved to Paris, France to write a biography on Madame Roland she had owned a famous saloon during the French revolution. While in Paris she wrote for and edited McClure's Magazine part of her writing included a series on Napoleon Bonaparte. Her most famous series she did for McClure's nearly doubled the circulation it was about Abraham Lincoln she was praised as one of the greatest historical writer of the time for her ability to uncover details about there personal lives. In 1902 her defining moment came she wrote the 19 part series on The history of standard oil that would change the world.

The History of Standard Oil NOVEMBER OCTOBER 1904 For two years she researched hundreds of documents and interviews and through this she created The History of standard Oil in which she acknowledged Rockefeller as a business mastermind but condemned his cut throat tactics in monopolizing the oil industry. CONTRIBUTION: This work brought the problems of the industry to the public lime light and helped influence the courts ruling on standard oil. On May 15, 1911, the US Supreme Court upheld the lower court judgment and declared the Standard Oil group to be an "unreasonable" monopoly under the Sherman Antitrust Act, Section II. It ordered Standard to break up into 34 independent companies with different boards of directors.
