In 1917, young women in Orange, New Jersey landed one of the best-paying jobs in town: painting glowing numbers on watch faces. They walked home through dark streets literally glowing, and people called them the "ghost girls." The paint was radium, and the company swore it was safe. Then their teeth fell out and their jaws crumbled, and the company spent years making sure nobody connected the dots. This is the story of the Radium Girls, the women who fought back and helped win the workplace safety rights you have today.
