Non-Fiction Memoir
NewsLady is the memoir of a trailblazing African American
woman journalist whose life is about "firsts." Carole
Simpson was the first woman to broadcast radio news in
Chicago, the first African American woman to anchor a local
newscast in the same city, the first African American woman
national network television correspondent, the first African
American woman to anchor a national network newscast and the
first woman or minority to moderate a presidential debate.
Hers is a story of survival in a male-dominated profession
that placed the highest premium on white males. In this book
she recounts how she endured and conquered sex
discrimination and racial prejudice to reach the top ranks
of her profession. Along the way she covered some of the
most important news events over the four decades of her
illustrious broadcasting career. Her inspirational story is
for all trying to succeed in a corporate environment.
