Sisterhood is the connective tissue between these life stories told by women over 50 who, in their struggles and triumphs, have made their marks. Among the celebrities are Billie Jean King, Judith Crist, Eartha Kitt and Matilda Cuomo, who reflect on maturity and their personal experiences in the framework of older women in American culture. Some of the stories are harrowing depictions of women's liberation from injustice and abuse; others are deeply felt expressions of aspirations and fulfillment. The 25 women heard here celebrate not only having passed the crisis of confidence with which many women approach their 40s and 50s but also having been empowered by the experience. As Erica Jong proclaims, "I'm growing into my face." Benatovich is an editor at Oracle Press. Illustrations.
