Marty M was from NY and she was one of the first female members of AA she is speaking at the Greenfield Hill Group in 1979. She became sober in April of 1939, she wrote the story “Women Suffer Too” which is included in the Big Book. Marty M was also the first lesbian member of Alcoholics Anonymous at a time when gay and lesbians were not accepted by society.
She also wrote a book called Marty M's New Primer on Alcoholism that is long out of print but I did find a few used 1962 copies Here a more updated 1981 version Here
There is a good biography about her that is still in print Click Here

This is not an AA meeting so if you need to hear a meeting just now please choose another Sober Cast Episode. For the AA history buffs, this is a phone interview with Henrietta Seiberling the woman that arranged the first meeting between founders Bill W. and Bob S.
I was unable to find any context but it is a 1971 Interview with her son John Seiberling, she passed away in 1979. This picks up having already started and ends abruptly with the phone being hung up mid sentence (I assume accidently).
