Here on the Powered Women Blog, we talk about women's lives, rights and relationships, women's health, and how the media treats women. We look at feminism--I don't shy away from the f-word. I can't wait for you to post your comments here!

What's Kathleen Turner Up to Now?

Ever the Powered Woman, Kathleen recently shares her philosophy of life and acting with students at her alma mater, Missouri State University. Thought you might enjoy. She tells many of the stories we wrote about in Send Yourself Roses. And note that she called out the women after all the questions came from the men in the audience. (Thanks to Els Van Landuyt for tipping me off to the video.)
