Women’s History Month

March is Women’s History Month.  It’s been a busy month. The conversation about Sheryl Sandberg’s book “Lean in” has been going on for weeks. My Amazon order will arrive soon. PBS aired the documentary “Makers,” a history of the women’s movement.  Watch it. You will be alternately inspired and frustrated. And sadly, March saw the death of Bonnie Franklin who portrayed single mom Ann Romano on “One Day at a Time.”  Find a rerun.

Each of these events is a reminder that the conversation continues. The personal is political.
