Loved it! She didn't name-drop, I think. She was more pointing out the irony that she had so little, then got a whiff of something special, only to be treated rather rough in a male-dominated field (and world--at that time) UNTIL she showed them what she herself didn't know, at first, SHE HAD TALENT. (Not to mention, hard work, ethics and sincerity.) This book tells the stories that many of us missed knowing at the times they happened--because she tells, not only what was going on in the world at the time, but also she tells behind the scenes things and from a WOMAN'S perspective. I couldn't put the book down!!!!! (And I learned so many things I didn't know.)
