Wonderful book! Read by the author,it opens a door to the very interesting life of a White House Correspondent who happens to be married to Secretary of the Treasury Alan Greenspan. Mitchell is a pro who is not afraid to tell stories about the times she failed,her setbacks, and funny stories too (Joe DiMaggio handed the Queen of England a baseball to sign and she handed it back..."The Queen does not sign baseballs," he was told.) Ruth Bader Ginsberg officiated at her wedding...no name dropping here but a close circle of friends who just happen to be some of the most influential men and women in our country. Loved it!
