Ms. Gloria Steinem

Narrator Christine Kiphart brings a steady confidence to this biography of noted feminist and journalist Gloria Steinem. This audiobook moves through Steinem's life--from her difficult childhood through her development as a feminist to her iconic stature as a major figure in modern American feminism. Kiphart's tone is light and pleasant, in keeping with the straightforward style of a young adult biography. She creates specific voices when quoting Steinem or others, making clear distinctions between those lines and the overall narrative. During times of particular triumph or distress, Kiphart allows the natural emotions of the moment to color her narration and add authenticity. The appended back matter includes a timeline of American feminism and a Who's Who that complements the biography. N.M. � AudioFile 2020, Portland, Maine
