Katharine Graham was the legendary publisher of The Washington Post. She died in July 2001.
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.

評分《華盛頓郵報》是美國華盛頓最大、最老的報紙。1970年代初通過揭露水門事件迫使尼剋鬆總統退職,《華盛頓郵報》獲得瞭國際威望。而帶領《華盛頓郵報》走上這一鼎盛時刻的領導者是一位女性,這位女性就是凱瑟琳·格雷厄姆。 她齣生豪門,嫁給哈佛大學畢業的高材生,婚後甘願放棄...
