Gail Collins talked about her book When Everything Changed: The Amazing Journey of American Women from 1960 to the Present (Little, Brown and Company; October 14, 2009). She explored the changes in the lives of American women over the past fifty years. Ms. Collins denoted the differences between a time when New York City secretary Lois Rabinowitz was upbraided for wearing slacks in court to the formation of the National Organization for Women and the presidential campaign of Hillary Clinton. The guest interviewer was Gwen Ifill, managing editor and moderator of PBS' “Washington Week” and senior correspondent for “The News Hour with Jim Lehrer.”

Gail Collins was the first women to hold the position of editorial page editor for the New York Times, which she held from 2001 to 2007. She is currently a columnist for the New York Times' Op-Ed page. Ms. Collins is the author of America’s Women: 400 Years of Dolls, Drudges, Helpmates, and Heroines. close
