If you like mysteries, I love Sue Grafton's series about a female detective named Kinsey Millhone. She absolutely doesn't take any shit and has a great sense of humor. I tend to admire people that don't take shit and don't care what people think about them like Cher and Roseanne, and people who speak for women like Gloria Steinham.

Guest guest Posted December 20, 2001 Report Share Posted December 20, 2001 Kathleen, good thoughts on role models. I loved Steel Magnolias. I saw it on tv for the first time just last year. I remember Sally Field in Norma Rae and also Places in the Heart... do you know, she is probably my favorite actress of all times? There is something about Sally that I identify with. I bet if we could ask her, she would say she had low self esteem and little confidence, but she didn't want to live small either. ) You go, Sally. My favorite books as a young girl were Drew Mysteries. was a no nonsense, take charge kind of girl. The show " Biography " did a piece on Graham. Fascinating woman who made lemonade out of lemons. I bet the book goes into much more detail (as books usually do). Kathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
