when she died, some in the newsroom were upset i didn't know her. now, i knew of her book, 'the feminine mystique,' but i didn't know her name. do most of you know her who she is?

We talked about her a lot in a university class (Key essays in American History). I hadn't heard of her before, I'm glad I got to read some of her stuff because of that class.

My history teacher in college was a big feminist so we went over the book and Betty.
