Playwrights Canada Press Gloria: A Life book Paperback 96 pages

Five decades after Gloria Steinem began raising her voice for equality and championing the voices of others, she remains a lodestar for the American feminist movement. Emily Mann’s new play traces the progress of Steinem’s extraordinary life, including her time at Smith College, her undercover Playboy exposé, her mother’s breakdown, the founding of Ms. magazine, and her deep involvement in the women’s movement as an activist and organizer. This is a timely work that shows how Steinem’s leadership and dedication to conversation as a catalyst for change continues to offer a vital path forward in our present time.
