A Life in Motion

As one of the founding mothers of the academic discipline of women's studies, Florence Howe was deeply involved in the feminist movement of the 1960s and 1970s. Now 81 years old, she reveals details of her eventful life, including her relationships with other notable feminists such as Gloria Steinem, Marilyn French, Grace Paley, Tillie Olson and many more. Candid and accessible, A Life in Motion is essential reading for anyone interested in the early years of women's studies and the feminist publishing movement.
