It’s a deal! The New Press signs for Uppity Women

Uppity Women has found a home. The New Press will publish my forthcoming book on the history of Title IX and today’s movement against sex discrimination in education.

I’m honored to be in the company of authors like Tressie McMillan Cottom, Arlie Russell Hochschild, Martin Duberman, Studs Terkel, and Howard Zinn at The New Press. I’m delighted that Uppity Women will be in the same catalogue as Strangers in Their Own Land, What We Talk About When We Talk About Rape, and “People’s History” books on numerous topics (like poverty, LGBT history, the American revolution, art history, and so many more).

Thanks go to the expert team of Gail Ross and Dara Kaye at the Ross Yoon Agency for guiding my book into the hands of The New Press.

I’ve got a big year of writing ahead and a few more interviews and research trips to do. By June of 2020 I’ll be sending a finished manuscript to my editors at The New Press. Uppity Women is starting to get real!
