Queen of the Oil Club
by Anna Rubino (9780807072776)

The first biography of a journalist, publisher, and power broker so influential in the oil world that she was called the midwife of OPEC. Wanda Jablonski began her career as a "copyboy" at a time when women were rarely hired as business reporters and came to wield extraordinary influence over the oil industry from the 1950s through the 1980s. Tenacious and glamorous, Jablonski talked her way into exploration sites in Middle Eastern deserts, drilling camps in the Venezuelan jungle, male-only boardrooms in London, and even the king's harem in Saudi Arabia.
