Rescheduled from November...
To say that Madeleine May Kunin has lived an extraordinary life is an understatement! Governor, ambassador, deputy secretary of education, professor, poet, feminist… the list just goes on. Coming of Age: My Journey to the Eighties, a memoir, contemplates the emotional changes that come along side the physical changes of aging.
Governor Kunin has written three previous books: Living a Political Life (Knopf), and The New Feminist Agenda: Defining the Next Revolution for Women, Work, and Family (New York Times Editor's Choice) and Pearls Politics and Power. She has more energy than two 40-year-olds. She is currently James Marsh Scholar Professor-at-Large at the University of Vermont, serves on the board of the Institute for Sustainable Communities (ISC), and she recently launched Emerge Vermont to encourage and support women in politics.
"With Coming of Age, Madeleine May Kunin continues in her role as bearer of light for women everywhere. This time, she holds the lantern while walking gracefully, passionately and authentically toward her final years. Like the woman herself, Kunin's memoir is exquisite." -- Vermont Woman
