Description
Includes a new afterword: A "richly detailed" biography of the iconic feminist based on interviews with friends, family, colleagues, and Steinem herself (The Washington Post). Going beyond Gloria Steinem's public persona, this biography provides an in-depth portrait of the famed activist-covering her family of origin, Smith College education, travels in India, founding of Ms. magazine, and much more-drawn from fifty hours of interviews with Steinem, as well as conversations with more than two hundred people in her life. "Stern's biography is sympathetic but critical about the woman who was once perhaps the foremost figure of American feminism. . . . Follows its subject from her childhood with a mentally ill mother and ne'er-do-well father through her rise in the women's movement." -The New York Times Book Review "Feminist icon, goddess, social climber, bunny-who is Gloria Steinem? All of the above, according to [this] serious new biography. . . . A real look at Steinem off the public platform." -Kirkus Reviews "Avoiding esoteric psychological or feminist theorizing, Stern still provides a clear context for Steinem's development both as a public figure and as an exemplar of the movement that seeks to have women define themselves as autonomous individuals." -Library Journal Includes photographs
