Waiting for Prime Time

The Women of Television News

"The best book I've read on women in broadcasting. . . . It details the incredible struggle women have faced in what some consider a leadership industry."
-- Larry King, USA Today

"This is a groundbreaking first history of the 'underground' women's movement at the networks. It is told with no holds barred by a leader of that struggle, which is still going on. I found it extremely moving."
-- Betty Friedan
