The Ruth Nichols Collection relates to early aviator Ruth Rowland Nichols, a charter member of the Ninety-Nines Organization of Women Pilots. Nichols, born into a prominent family in New York in 1901, was nicknamed "The Flying Debutante" due to her socialite status. Nichols broke many distance and speed records throughout her multi-decade aviation career, founded an aerial nursing organization called Relief Wings during World War II, and became a public speaker and author later in life.
