A founder of NOW and a vanguard leader of the Women's Movement, Betty Friedan was the author of The Feminine Mystique, It Changed My Life, The Second Stage, Beyond Gender, and The Fountain of Age. She taught at Northwestern University, Yale, Temple, Harvard, and USC. She died in 2006
"[Friedan] takes us behind her public façade to a woman who began
her remarkable adult life as 'just a housewife, ' who wrote a
book...that reaped the whirlwind, and found herself
contending...with the awesome responsibilities and contradictions
that the book thrust upon her.... An immensely touching, beguiling
and engaging book."
-- The Washington Post
"Fascinating...Friedan's firsthand tales will transport readers to
the glory days of the women's movement."
-- Boston Herald
