John Norris
Mary McGrory:The First Queen of Journalism
Book Summary
Mary McGrory was the singular feminine voice from the highest perches of politics and she didn’t reach there by luck.
John Norris, the executive director of the Sustainable Security and Peacebuilding Initiative at American Progress, offers the context in which Mary succeeded in the political world, at a time when most women were relegated to office jobs.
Norris writes with political credentials and an understanding that comes with the long history of being near the seats of power in Washington, D.C.
