The Only Woman in the Room by Marie BenedictMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
What a great book, and what a masterful author. I was mesmerized from page one. I was sorry when it was over. Marie Benedict seems to be Hedy Lamarr. It feels like it is Hedy telling me her story. It feels so personal and real. Of course, it is a real story of real people in a time of unbelievable upheaval.
Facing personal and state sponsored discrimination. Amazing that one would be able to persevere. She must have been a remarkable person. BTW, I'm going back and watching a few of her first movies.
