SUMMARY:Rebecca Traister in Conversation with Library Director Diane Kresh
DESCRIPTION:An Arlington Reads Signature Author Event.\n\n“The most 
 brilliant voice on feminism in this country.” --Anne Lamott. This event 
 is sponsored by the Rosslyn BID. \n\nTraister's "Good and Mad" is a vital\, 
 incisive exploration into the transformative power of female anger and its 
 ability to transcend into a political movement. In the year 2018\, it 
 seemed as if women’s anger suddenly erupted into the public conversation. 
 But long before Pantsuit Nation\, before the Women’s March\, and before 
 the #MeToo movement\, women’s anger was not only politically 
 catalytic—but politically problematic. The story of female fury and its 
 cultural significance demonstrates the long history of bitter resentment 
 that has enshrouded women’s slow rise to political power in America\, as 
 well as the ways that anger is received when it comes from women as opposed 
 to when it comes from men.\n\nAbout the Author\n\nRebecca Traister is 
 writer-at-large for New York Magazine and the author of three books: "Good 
 and Mad\," New York Times best-seller "All The Single Ladies\," which was 
 named a Notable Book of 2016 by The New York Times\, and "Big Girls Don’t 
 Cry\," a Times Notable Book of 2010 and the winner of the Ernesta Drinker 
 Ballard Book Prize. A winner of the National Magazine Award for Columns and 
 Commentary\, she has also written for Elle\, Salon\, The Nation\, The New 
 Republic\, The Washington Post and The New York Observer. She is a winner 
 of the 2016 Hillman Prize for Analysis and Opinion Journalism.\n\nTraister 
 appears regularly on MSNBC’s All In with Chris Hayes\, as well as on 
 CNN\, NPR’s Fresh Air\, WNYC’s Brian Lehrer Show\, and other TV and 
 radio outlets. Traister was raised outside Philadelphia\, where she 
 attended Quaker high school\, and then went on to major in American Studies 
 at Northwestern University. She lives in Brooklyn.\n\nRSVP for an event
