Personal History Part 1 Of Book

I don't always like biographies - they can be very self serving and trite. But I was blown away by this woman. Frankly, I didn't know much about her or her story of taking over the Washington Post upon the death of her husband - a job she really had been preparing for her whole life, if she knew it or not. Katherine Graham is a amazing, strong and wise woman, and she tells her tale in a very honest way, sharing her flaws, her mistakes and her regrets as lessons for the rest of us. She had a seat at the table for some of the biggest stories of our time, yet she makes each of these stories deeply personal in the telling. She's an inspiration for women in business, and who struggle to manage family, social, political and work obligations. A remarkable woman, a remarkable life, and a remarkable book.
