We will be exploring Nina Totenberg’s book Dinner with Ruth—A Memoir to the Power of Friendships.  Dinners with Ruth is an extraordinary account of two women who paved the way for future generations by tearing down professional and legal barriers. The book is also an intimate memoir of the power of friendships as women began to pry open career doors and transform the workplace.  At the story’s heart is one special relationship: Ruth and Nina saw each other not only through personal joys but also challenging times.  They shared not only a love of opera, but also of shopping and good food.

Our book discussions offer a place of community as we explore topics of the day through various lenses.  Even as we offer some structure our discussions are free flowing and always have places for our own personal stories.
