Thirty years after women became 50 percent of the college graduates in the United States, men still hold the vast majority of leadership positions in government and industry. This means that women’s voices are still not heard equally in the decisions that most affect our lives. In Lean In, Sheryl Sandberg examines why women’s progress in achieving leadership roles has stalled, explains the root causes, and offers compelling, commonsense solutions that can empower women to achieve their full potential.

Dreamboy: My Life as a QVC Host & Other Greatest Hits

http://www.damngoodman.com

My book tells of my journey from middle child of divorced parents, to becoming a nude model, to having an affair with a Maryland State politician, and marrying a heterosexual woman as an openly gay man. I then co-founded Actors Against Drugs, became a host on the QVC network and traveled the country as a nationally recognized doll designer. I appeared in movie and television roles as a drag queen and was inspired by the music of the Supremes along the way.
