A girl named Carrie : the visionary who created Neiman Marcus and set the standard for fashion / by Smith, Jerrie Marcus,author.; Smith, Allison V.,author.;
Jerrie Marcus Smith remembers her great aunt Carrie as a humorless woman who always wore black and who, Jerrie says, ٢scared me to death.٣ Only as an adult did Jerrie grasp the impact of Carrie Marcus Neiman. Along with her brother, Herbert Marcus Sr., and her husband A.L. Neiman, Carrie co-founded in 1907 the famed Neiman Marcus department store in Dallas, Texas. Carrie played an integral role in the store's success, despite having three strikes against her: she was a woman, she was Jewish, and (after her husband's illicit relationship with a second-floor saleswoman) she was divorced.
