Katie Couric looks back on her career in television, from her start as a local news desk assistant to co-hosting NBC's Today show for fifteen years and later anchoring the CBS Evening News. She describes the early death of her husband, Jay Monahan, from colon cancer, and her own cancer awareness campaign, as well as the sexism she faced in newsrooms and the controversies with colleagues. The book also covers her family, her mistakes and what she learned, in a chatty, personal tone.
Readers interested in American broadcast news and the experiences of a woman in the industry will find a candid, readable memoir.
Practical and clear-cut; an easy read.
