About Ida Tarbell
Ida Tarbell was born on November 5, 1857 in Amity, Pennsylvania. She was a journalist known for her series of exposes on the Standard Oil company that ultimately led to the Supreme Court decision to break up the company.
Before gaining fame, she graduated as one of the only women in her Allegeny College class and later brought an investigative spirit to McClure’s magazine where she started looking into big businesses.
Tarbell delved into volumes of Rockefeller business records, news reports, and court testimony to uncover their unfair business practices. Her upbringing in an oil family among the derricks of northwest Pennsylvania helped her make sense of the Rockefellers’ business dealings.
