Katharine Graham's father was a multi-millionaire who left private business and government service to buy and restore the down-and-out Washington Post. Her husband Phil Graham was a brilliant and charismatic man whose plunge into manic depression and eventual suicide is recounted movingly and charitably in this book. Above all, Katharine Graham tells her own story - the contradictions of her privileged yet lonely childhood; the tragic drama of her marriage - and the challenges of her new life as the head of a great newspaper company. An extraordinarily frank, honest and generous book by one of America's most famous and admired women, owner of one of its greatest newspapers, the Washington Post. This is more than the mere life story of a successful woman. It deals with power and politics at the centre, and the relationship between the White House and the press, notably over Watergate.
Katharine Graham was the legendary publisher of The Washington Post. She died in July 2001.

这本600多页的自传,我从4月底看到8月底,真的是花时最久的一本书了 这个女人,出生富裕家庭,她爹当过美联储主席,买下了华盛顿邮报,后来她老公接手了邮报的运营,她从白富美直接做阔太太,(他们各地的家都是城堡那种规模的。。。带湖)到46岁一直是超有钱的家庭妇女角色。 然后。。。经历了父亲去世,老公出轨,老公躁郁,老公自杀。。。一夜之间需要靠她撑起一个企业,而她这辈子只有刚大学毕业那一年的工作经验。 这经历是不是比电影都刺激!起点小说都不敢这么写的。后来就是这个女人带领邮报完美渡过了五角大楼文件,水门事件等等危机,让邮报从一家华盛顿地区的小报纸变为全世界都有影响力的声音,中间处理各种危机所表现出的韧性,冷静,好学,勤奋,宽容,以及来源于家庭背景的自信,让人发自内心的钦佩。
