Resumen del Editor
Gloria Steinem - writer, activist, organizer, and one of the most inspiring leaders in the world - now tells a story she has never told before, a candid account of how her early years led her to live an on-the-road kind of life, traveling, listening to people, learning, and creating change. She reveals the story of her own growth in tandem with the growth of an ongoing movement for equality. This is the story at the heart of My Life on the Road.
Includes an introduction read by Gloria Steinem.
Reseñas de la Crítica
"My Life on the Road is filled with beautifully told stories of the people she has spoken with and listened to, been changed by, helped organize, got radicalized by, could get lost in, could get found in. It is soul material, human and political, funny and touching, deeply spiritual. I began it again the day after I finished." (Anne Lamott)
"My Life on the Road is an inspiring work, a call for action. Steinem shares her life as a global freedom fighter, inviting readers to continue the journey - and the struggle." (Bell Hooks)
“Like Steinem herself, [My Life on the Road] is thoughtful and astonishingly humble. It is also filled with a sense of the momentous while offering deeply personal insights into what shaped her.” (O, The Oprah Magazine)
Featured Article: 19 Empowering Listens We Love for Women's Equality Day
The 19th Amendment was ratified in 1920. A little more than 50 years later, in 1973, the US Congress designated August 26th Women’s Equality Day. We proudly honor this year’s Women's Equality Day with 19 titles by or about amazing, diverse women. This list reflects fierce determination, victories big and bigger, and a lot of heart and soul. From riveting fiction to autobiography in song, there’s a listen that will surely get your vote.

Award-winning journalist Masha Gessen's understanding of the events and forces that have wracked Russia in recent times is unparalleled. In The Future Is History, Gessen follows the lives of four people born at what promised to be the dawn of democracy. Each of them came of age with unprecedented expectations, some as the children and grandchildren of the very architects of the new Russia, each with newfound aspirations of their own - as entrepreneurs, activists, thinkers, and writers, sexual and social beings.

In Betty Reid Soskin’s 96 years of living, she has been a witness to a grand sweep of American history. When she was born in 1921, the lynching of African-Americans was a national epidemic, blackface minstrel shows were the most popular American form of entertainment, white women had only just won the right to vote, and most African-Americans in the Deep South could not vote at all. From her great-grandmother, who had been enslaved until her mid-20s, Betty heard stories of slavery and the times of terror and struggle for Black folk that followed.

The book that changed the consciousness of a country - and the world. Landmark, groundbreaking, classic - these adjectives barely describe the earthshaking and long-lasting effects of Betty Friedan's The Feminine Mystique. This is the book that defined "the problem that has no name", that launched the Second Wave of the feminist movement, and has been awakening women and men with its insights into social relations, which still remain fresh, ever since.

Her name was Henrietta Lacks, but scientists know her as HeLa. She was a poor Southern tobacco farmer who worked the same land as her slave ancestors, yet her cells - taken without her knowledge - became one of the most important tools in medicine: The first “immortal” human cells grown in culture, which are still alive today, though she has been dead for more than 60 years. HeLa cells were vital for developing the polio vaccine; uncovered secrets of cancer, viruses, and the atom bomb’s effects.

Historia
The book that changed the consciousness of a country - and the world. Landmark, groundbreaking, classic - these adjectives barely describe the earthshaking and long-lasting effects of Betty Friedan's The Feminine Mystique. This is the book that defined "the problem that has no name", that launched the Second Wave of the feminist movement, and has been awakening women and men with its insights into social relations, which still remain fresh, ever since.

Historia
Nearly a half century into being a feminist and legal pioneer, something funny happened to Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg: The octogenarian won the Internet. Across America, people who weren't even born when Ginsburg made her name are tattooing themselves with her face, setting her famously searing dissents to music, and making viral videos in tribute.

Historia
Her name was Henrietta Lacks, but scientists know her as HeLa. She was a poor Southern tobacco farmer who worked the same land as her slave ancestors, yet her cells - taken without her knowledge - became one of the most important tools in medicine: The first “immortal” human cells grown in culture, which are still alive today, though she has been dead for more than 60 years. HeLa cells were vital for developing the polio vaccine; uncovered secrets of cancer, viruses, and the atom bomb’s effects.

Fantastic!
I learned so much about Gloria & her involvement with the Feminist & Civil Rights movements. You'll enjoy it even if you're not big on autobiographies or biographies.

Highly recommend.
This is a beautiful book of adventure and growth throughout a life of living for others. The end comes to a beautiful resolution of living for both and finally finding a home that includes a life on the road, which she explains to be more of a mindset than a lifestyle anyways. The performance was clear and lively. I listened at 1.5 speed and that was perfect.

insightful
I found the story insightful as we learn how this engaged organizer finds her passion and footing for various causes as she overcomes her inhibitions for public speaking. I quoted the book to so many friends through the course of reading this riveting book.

I love Gloria Steinem
I could listen to her wisdom all day. That said, I found the text dense and not free flowing and in parts Ms.Winger’s monochromatic tone made it painful. All in all though, it was a worthy listen.

Interesting and informative
The book journeys through her experiences in family, friendships, activism and more. Her descriptions of everyday encounters with cab drivers and everyday people are just as fascinating as her interactions with famous individuals.

Return to Gloria, Discover Gloria
This really spoke to me as a human being. It reminded me of how important Gloria's writings were to me in my younger days, particularly the Playboy Bunny peice and the whole book on self-esteem. This book is about travel, America, and all of the fringe elements it has to offer. Did you know that Taxi Cab Drivers are
Best at predicting elections? I loved that it included a chapter dedicated to Wilma Mankiller. Texas figures big, too, in some
surprising and not so surprising ways. How did I ever forget about what Gloria Steinem has to say? Well, I didn't. But I'm glad I now realize that.

Completely Changed Me
I have been moved and uplifted. Her story, her life have changed me forever. I was raised to think of her as the enemy. A bad person. An NPR interview lead me to purchase the book. I've never been so rapidly opened as I was while reading My Life on the Road.

Such a Good Friend.
What about Debra Winger and Gloria Steinem ’s performance did you like?
I can imagine there were many who would love to take on this project. DW was such an inspired choice, her slightly gravelly voice and access to the humor and deep humanity of GS comes across beautifully. I could almost see her nodding in agreement as she read.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Several, her easy friendships with the working women and men she encounters in her travels speaks volumes. I would love to find myself sitting next to her on a long flight.
Any additional comments?
If you are not familiar with Gloria Steinem, here is a good place to start. No matter what your politics may be, her kindness, loyalty, curiosity and unwavering willingness to learn from every experience is clearly a lesson in speaking the truth.

She's an ICON who speaks truth to power
Have read most of her books, have seen her speak in person, and don't miss an opportunity to see or hear her in the media. She is my hero. Interesting that she writes so much about her father who clearly influenced who she is became: outspoken, unique, with a laser focus on women's issues which, in truth, affects the world and explains its current state. I wish Ms. Steinem had performed the entire book as I appreciate the warmth of her voice. Debra Winger is no slouch in the performance department, but I missed Gloria's inflections and color.
A feminist is one who believes that you can be different yet equal, drum roll please: at the same time. You can have different genders, different abilities and still have equal rights and be of equal value. A young son recently told Hillary Clinton on the campaign trail that his mother, a teacher, worked harder than his father and that she deserved to get paid more than his father was paid, not less. In the mid 80's there was a movement to increase women's pay from .75 on the $1.00. In 2015, women have gained .04 and now make .79 on the $1.00 as compared to men. The tragedy in this inequality is that most of the poverty in America is women with dependent children. The reasons for the pay gap have nothing to do with ability, intelligence or education. So, what is the reasonable conclusion?
