A rare first-person account of the women’s movement
A comprehensive, indexed memoir about the Second Wave women’s movement by the cofounder of the National Organization for Women (NOW). Muriel Fox offers rare, firsthand stories of 29 women and one man, including Betty Freidan, but also many who have not previously been recognized for their contributions.
As NOW’s public relations director, Fox orchestrated nationwide outreach. She was NOW’s vice president, then chair of the board, then chaired the National Advisory Committee. As Betty Friedan’s main lieutenant and director of operations, Fox drafted numerous letters sent by NOW under Friedan’s signature to government officials demanding faster action to reduce sex discrimination, including a letter that helped persuade President Lyndon Johnson to add gender to Affirmative Action and open opportunities for millions of women.
Unlike books relying on secondary sources, Fox’s memoir is built mainly from her own Feminism Files containing hundreds of letters, clippings, notes, and photographs that she archived.
