In This Episode, You'll Learn: Her unlikely path to becoming one of the first women in the San Francisco Fire Department. How she learned that her brother was a secret animal liberation leader for 20 years. Is there such a thing a 'girl books' and 'boy books'? The writing collective that kept her sane.
