Lucy Frey

In 1994, she left Alaska and moved back to Missouri to a home overlooking Pomme de Terre Lake. There, she became involved in real estate again and joined the Missouri Master Gardeners group and the local archeology group, among others.

Lucy Frey also wrote her own work titled "One Woman, One Women's Bookstore: Case Study and Comment on the Place of a Women's Bookstore in a Community" published in 1985, in which she discusses the Women's Bookstore Movement and the significance it has had on women's equality as well as other insight on women's bookstores and what it takes for someone to effectively open one in their own community.

Frey was born near Huggins, MO, to Albert Frey and Gladys (Maxvill) Frey, and grew up in the area attending Oak Grove, Number One (Ballard) and Long Valley elementary schools. A few days after her 17th birthday, she began her first teaching job at Long Valley — the same one-room school that she had attended earlier. When she completed her bachelor's degree in 1957, from Southwest Missouri State College, she was hired by the Anchorage, Alaska, School District, where she taught and later became social studies coordinator.

Lucy Frey (Lucille Pauline Frey) (born August 1, 1932) was an American feminist and gay rights activist and educator. She has been called "a founder of Alaska's lesbian community." On March 6, 2009, she was inaugurated into the Alaska Women's Hall of Fame for her work as a feminist and an educator. Frey was also a businesswoman and a social studies teacher at Clark Junior High School, where she also developed the curriculum for the students.
