This true story is both an exciting treasure hunt and a penetrating exploration of the challenges facing women entrepreneurs in the 1970s and today. Prospects were limited in 1960, but adventures called and opportunities appeared. Breaking through an ad agency's glass ceiling, skiing in Aspen, and a year of traveling led to founding Creative Freelancers Inc., the first central agency for freelance commercial artists and writers in Manhattan, and in 1997 it became the first agency on the web. Marriage to an older, sophisticated New York man made her a mother to two of her own children and three stepdaughters. Finding herself with a family needing support in Manhattan and great business potential, she knew she needed to learn more. Her path as an entrepreneur is explained and suggestions are mentored from experiences. The stories portray youthful travels, harrowing legal battles, and romantic surprises.
