Ida Pruitt is well-known among students of China for her classic histories of two traditional Chinese women's lives, A Daughter of Han: The Autobiography of a Chinese Working Woman, and Old Madam Yin: A Memoir of Peking Life, 1926-1938. She is also known for her efforts during World War II on behalf of both the Nationalist and Communist Chinese, as the American executive secretary of the Chinese Industrial Cooperatives, and for her early and consistent support of the People's Republic of China. These political positions branded her "an atheist and a communist" to some Americans and a "true friend of China's" to others.

520 $a Ida Pruitt is well-known among students of China for her classic histories of two traditional Chinese women's lives, A Daughter of Han: The Autobiography of a Chinese Working Woman, and Old Madam Yin: A Memoir of Peking Life, 1926-1938. She is also known for her efforts during World War II on behalf of both the Nationalist and Communist Chinese, as the American executive secretary of the Chinese Industrial Cooperatives, and for her early and consistent support of the People's Republic of China. These political positions branded her "an atheist and a communist" to some Americans and a "true friend of China's" to others.
520 $a Less well known is Ida Pruitt's early life as the daughter of Southern Baptist missionaries and her personal journey from a conservative religious community in North China which supported foreign interventionism in Asia to the secular reform community of Westerners in Peking which opposed foreign interventionism and ultimately supported the Chinese Communists.
520 $a This study traces the substantive changes between Ida Pruitt's life and her mother's, Anna Seward Pruitt, changes which occurred within a context of revolutionary historic movements in nineteenth and twentieth century China, in twentieth century Sino-American relations, and in twentieth century American social life. The structural continuities between the two generations of women, including such things as American women's social roles and material culture, also are explored in relation to the larger political and social changes.
520 $a To do this, the major social contexts of mother's and daughter's lives, missionary women's work for Chinese women and the social service department of the Peking Union Medical College Hospital, are examined in historic perspective. Both public documents and family papers are used. The interpersonal dynamics within the Pruitt family and mission station, especially the mother-daughter relationship, itself, are probed through the family papers and extensive personal interviews with Ida Pruitt.
