Leslie Brody

An enjoyable read about an interesting person. I especially liked the Bay Area history aspects.

Finished this back in January. Very interesting, especially the Bay Area history.

I highly recommend this. Leslie lived part of her adventure with me in our White Panther collective on LaSalle in Chicago. So glad to read her take on some of our experiences in those heady days. I only wish she remembered more of our names. It's okay, the statute of limitations is long past for some of our hijinks! I'm writing my own version of those events in a forthcoming book. Meanwhile, seeking an agent.

Fascinating biography of Louise Fitzhugh and her too brief but shining life: artist, renegade, bohemian, uncompromising, lesbian, tormented. And she would go on to write one of the most seminal and timely classics in children's literature. An engrossing and entertaining read; I hated to come to the end. I am inspired now to reread "Harriet the Spy," et al!
