The Woman in the Room (Paperback)
Seller: Grand Eagle Retail, Wilmington, DE, U.S.A.
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Born into a poor, immigrant family, Naomi B. Levine grew up in the Bronx and on Manhattan's storied Lower East Side in an era when women were not encouraged to have lives of their own. Nevertheless, she managed to raise herself to prominence as a leader of Jewish affairs, champion of civil rights, and expert fundraiser.Poignant, direct, and inflected with Yiddishkeit,The Woman in the Roomis the story of how Levine went from living in a crowded tenement with a shared bathroom to penning an amicus brief that was crucial inBrown v. Board of Education, assuming the Executive Directorship of the American Jewish Congress, and saving NYU from bankruptcy with the first billion-dollar capital campaign for a university.A lover of history, Levine describes not just her life but also articulates how the major historical events of the time emboldened her to take social and political positions that were in many circles unacceptable. She was an activist and a feminist before those concepts became part of our everyday parlance.The Woman in the Roomnot only illuminates the decades Levine lived but furnishes future generations with the strength and courage to face the challenges before them. Part history, part memoir, and 100% great New York story,The Woman in the Roomis the extraordinary tale of a woman who witnessed a turbulent century and who lived to transform herself and the world around her.
