My mom was a smart, capable working woman in the 50s and 60s, and as my dad’s office manager (and secretarial supervisor), her competence and people skills helped make his professional success possible. She later moved on to have her own, independent, successful career and was an amazing role model for all three of her kids (male and female).Margaret Schindelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18159345369223670796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1874262419752354657.post-78064304188058823332022-03-30T11:47:44.019-05:002022-03-30T11:47:44.019-05:00This sounds like a great book, Olivia, and one tha...This sounds like a great book, Olivia, and one that I would also enjoy reading.

The fact that she ends up on TV with a Cooking Show makes me want to find our how she handled that - and did she get the last laugh (so to speak) - Her character seems to describe the 50s and 60s (and even today in some cases)Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11149500665711112840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1874262419752354657.post-53005456388844841542022-03-30T07:18:19.560-05:002022-03-30T07:18:19.560-05:00You had me at 1950s, early 60s - a time period I k...You had me at 1950s, early 60s - a time period I know well.
