The Smartest Woman I Know


Book Description

The author of Love, Loss, and What I Wore presents “a whimsically illustrated memoir about [her] acerbic Jewish grandmother” (St. Petersburg Times). Ilene Beckerman’s first book “illuminates the experience of an entire generation of women,” wrote the New York Times Book Review in a full page of praise for Love, Loss, and What I Wore. It became a bestseller and inspired the hit Off-Broadway play by the same name. Now, Gingy returns with her fifth illustrated treasure, The Smartest Woman I Know—a tribute to the insightful woman who raised her. It’s been said there’s nobody as smart as an old woman. That’s Gingy’s grandmother, Ettie, though she had no more than a third-grade education. She dispensed unforgettable wisdom to Gingy and her sister, Tootsie, as well as to the customers at her and (her husband) Mr. Goldberg’s stationery and magazine store, where customers ranged from Irish nannies to Sara Delano Roosevelt to Marlene Dietrich. Clever about life and love, food and men, Ettie had advice for everyone, and it didn’t hurt that she got some of her best ideas from talking things over with God, out loud. Known for bringing wit and emotion to issues that concern women, depth and poignancy to subjects as seemingly trivial as clothes, beauty, and bridesmaids, Gingy now magically brings the irrepressible Ettie Goldberg to life. “With its compact format and bright colors, The Smartest Woman I Know by Ilene Beckerman looks deceptively cute, but it’s a deeply felt homage to the author’s 4-foot-10-inch grandmother Ettie.”—The Jewish Week “Ettie’s epigrams are packaged in a quick, amusing read, complete with quirky illustrations.”—Publishers Weekly

Every Woman Needs to Know Her C. U. P. Size


Book Description

Every woman needs to know her C.U.P Size: Calling, Uniqueness, and Purpose is not only one of the greatest literary works of our times but also serves as an empowerment and equipping resource tool that has the flexibility and reach to touch every female on the planet from ages 12-80 years old. Its play on words gives its author a unique advantage and opportunity to encourage women of all ages and stages as it relates to women walking out their purpose here on planet earth. From those who have the candid privilege to ingest a snap shot of this book the reviews have been nothing less than stellar. One C.O.O of a fortune 100 company was quoted as saying "this is the Woman Thou Art Loosed of the emerging generations." From the 1st chapter Charles Bond in a manner as only he can challenges his readers on the controversial issue of could God have been a woman. He celebrates and confirms the fact that the woman serves as the greatest catalyst of the human race because she completes the framework of creation as the crown of Gods Glory. In chapters such as "Onions Don't Cry," he reinforces the fact that whatever you give a woman she gives it back to you multiplied as well as improved. He boldly proclaims that if you give a woman a seed, she will give you offspring. If you give her groceries she will give you a meal. If you give her a house, she will make it into a home. If you give Madam C J Walker a scalp disease and some home remedies she will give you a sulfur shampoo to cure it and she will give you our first self-made female millionaire. If you give an Albanian nurse named Teresa an orphanage full of sick children she will give you a healed community and a Nobel Peace Prize. If you give a young woman from Mississippi a journalism degree and an anchor job she will give you the OWN Network and the Oprah Winfrey show. And if you give a virgin from Nazareth a night with the Holy Spirit she will give you the Savior of the whole world and the only begotten Son of God In chapters like "Finding The Right Bra" he peaks our interest by being provocative and informative and taking the 17 different styles of braziers available on the market and compares them to the 17 types of people that every girl and woman needs in her life. From "training bra" type people who show us how to get the hang of it, to "mastectomy bra" people who allow us to shine without shame. He closes this literary offering by assuring us that C.U.P Size is not about size at all, but it's about significance.




A Woman I Know


Book Description

The “fascinating” (The New York Times) true story of a filmmaker whose investigation of her film’s subject opened a new window onto the world of Cold War espionage, CIA secrets, and the assassination of John F. Kennedy. “A compelling real-life thriller.”—The Telegraph (UK) Independent filmmaker Mary Haverstick thought she’d stumbled onto the project of a lifetime—a biopic of aviation pioneer Jerrie Cobb, the key figure in a group of extraordinary women who in 1960 passed the same tests as the legendary male astronauts of the Mercury 7 but never went to space. Just as casting was set to begin, Haverstick received a mysterious warning from a government agent; soon she began to suspect that there was more to Jerrie’s story than what met the eye. As she dug deeper, she discovered that Jerrie’s life shadowed that of a mysterious CIA agent named June Cobb, whose espionage career traced an arc of intrigue from the jungles of South America to Fidel Castro’s Cuba, to the communist literary circles in Mexico City—and ultimately into the dark heart of the Kennedy assassination in Dallas. Haverstick’s attempt to learn the truth directly from Jerrie would plunge her into a cat-and-mouse game that stretched across a decade, deep into a thicket of coded CIA files. As she uncovered a remarkable set of mostly unknown women whose high-stakes intelligence work left its only traces in redacted files, she also found shocking new clues about what really happened at Dealey Plaza in 1963. Offering fresh insight into the Kennedy assassination and a vivid picture of women in midcentury intelligence, A Woman I Know brings to life the astonishing duplicities of the Cold War intelligence game, a world where code names and hidden identities were the lifeblood of spies bent on seeking advantage by any means necessary.

Play Like a Man, Win Like a Woman


Book Description

An honest and practical handbook that reveals important insights into relationships between men and women and work, Play Like a Man, Win Like a Woman, is a must-read for every woman who wants to leverage her power in the workplace. Women make up almost half of today's labor force, but in corporate America they don't share half of the power. Only four of the Fortune 500 company CEOs are women, and it's only been in the last few years that even half of the Fortune 500 companies have more than one female officer. A major reason for this? Most women were never taught how to play the game of business. Throughout her career in the super-competitive, male-dominated media industry, Gail Evans, one of the country's most powerful executives, has met innumerable women who tell her that they feel lost in the workplace, almost as if they were playing a game without knowing the directions. In this book, she reveals the secrets to the playbook of success and teaches women at all levels of the organization--from assistant to vice president--how to play the game of business to their advantage. Men know the rules because they wrote them, but women often feel shut out of the process because they don't know when to speak up, when to ask for responsibility, what to say at an interview, and a lot of other key moves that can make or break a career. Sharing with humor and candor her years of lessons from corporate life, Gail Evans gives readers practical tools for making the right decisions at work. Among the rules you will learn are: • How to Keep Score at Work • When to Take a Risk • How to Deal with the Imposter Syndrome • Ten Vocabulary Words That Mean Different Things to Men and Women • Why Men Can be Ugly, and You Can't • When to Quit Your Job
