Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
One of the brightest stars of the 20th-century women's movement, Betty Friedan is a true pioneer. Take a look at her long, rich life in Intimate Portrait: Betty Friedan. Presenting interviews with the author, her friends, family, and colleagues, as well as photos and footage from throughout her career, the program is as thorough as it is enlightening. Feel her frustration as she is fired from her reporting job for becoming pregnant, then channels her rage into writing The Feminine Mystique and founding the National Organization for Women. As host Joan Lunden reminds us, her simple demands for equal rights, which seem so tame today, were deeply controversial in their time. Her strength of conviction is inspiring, but her sense of humor keeps her approachable; the Intimate Portrait is of a woman you'd like to know better. --Rob Lightner
