9 and counting
Women of the Senate

Description

The nine woman members of the U.S. Senate--as of the year 2000--discuss various subjects concerning feminism, women's struggles for equality and power, and women in politics. "The nine women of the United States Senate have changed the political landscape, and there's no turning back. In Nine and Counting, readers will be treated to an inside view of their private and public lives. As the senators share their stories and reflections with refreshing candor, insight, and humor, they demonstrate how ordinary women can overcome barriers and achieve extraordinary goals. These nine women are more different than they are alike. Their backgrounds, personal styles, and political ideals are as diverse as the United States itself. Yet they share a commonality that runs deeper than politics or geography: the desire to give a voice to all of their constituents while serving as role models for women young and old. Each senator brings her unique perspective to the mix.". "Barbara Mikulski, Kay Bailey Hutchison, Dianne Feinstein, Barbara Boxer, Patty Murray, Olympia Snowe, Susan Collins, Mary Landrieu, and Blanche L. Lincoln are members of the United States Senate. They collaborated on this book with New York writer Catherine Whitney."--BOOK JACKET.
