About the Author:

Cathy Feldman, editor/publisher of Two Years Without Sleep: Working Moms Talk About Having A Baby and A Job, The Men At The Office: Working Women Talk About Working With Men, and I Work Too: Working Wives Talk About their Dual-Career Lives is an editor and researcher living in Santa Barbara, California. She graduated from the University of Iowa with a degree in journalism and mass communication. She began her business career in advertising and became director of advertising for a major California retail chain. Fifteen years ago Cathy started her own research company, and Blue Point Books grew out of her research work. She met so many interesting women who told her great stories about their experiences in the workplace, she knew she had to try to put them together in a book. But when people to whom she showed the prototype of the first book, Two Years Without Sleep in a three-ring binder said they wanted to buy it for their employees, she became a publisher and started Blue Point Books.

Cathy has interviewed more than 600 women from all over the country in a wide variety of professions. She describes the Blue Point Books project as a grass-roots effort made possible by a very informal network of people who want to share information and experiences.

Review:

"The Men at the Office is terrific. Women will love it, and it should be required reading for men." -- Susan Hayward, Director, Yankelovich Partners

"Consider Cathy Feldman's companion volumes as the workplace equivalent of Heloise's Helpful Hints." -- Bickley Townsend, Executive Vice-President, Catalyst

"Funny, irreverent . . . with enough hard data to serve as useful negotiating tools, either at the office or at home." -- Amy Gage, Columnist, St. Paul Pioneer Press
