Description
English: Jean Newman being sworn in as a city controller in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. From left to right: Hon. James C. McRuer, Con. Jean Newman, Mayor Nathan Phillips, in the mayor's office at Old City Hall. Newman was elected in 1954 to represent Ward 9 (North Toronto). In 1956, she became the first woman elected to the powerful Board of Control, wining the most votes of the four controllers elected, and thus gained the powerful budget chief position. In 1960, she became the first woman to run for Mayor of Toronto, placing third behind mayor Nathan Phillips and former mayor Allan Lamport.
