Julie Scelfo, journalist and author of “The Women Who Made New York" is in the MILK studio with me.
A collection of written portraits of the Nasty Women who built this city, illustrated with flair by artist Hallie Heald, TWWMNY is a must read at this moment in history.
Julie tells some choice anecdotes about MILKy women featured in the book – activists like Margaret Sanger and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, artists like Joan Rivers and Yoko Ono, and writers like Joan Didion. We discuss why media literacy and empathy matter so much right now, and how Julie is driven to tell stories about how we all live.
