  • Sob Sisters: the Image of the Female Journalist in Popular Culture
    SOB SISTERS: THE IMAGE OF THE FEMALE JOURNALIST IN POPULAR CULTURE By Joe Saltzman Director, Image of the Journalist in Popular Culture (IJPC) Joe Saltzman 2003 The Image of the Female Journalist in Popular Culture revolves around a dichotomy never quite resolved. The female journalist faces an ongoing dilemma: How to incorporate the masculine traits of journalism essential for success – being aggressive, self-reliant, curious, tough, ambitious, cynical, cocky, unsympathetic – while still being the woman society would like her to be – compassionate, caring, loving, maternal, sympathetic. Female reporters and editors in fiction have fought to overcome this central contradiction throughout the 20th century and are still fighting the battle today. Not much early fiction featured newswomen. Before 1880, there were few newspaperwomen and only about five novels written about them.1 Some real-life newswomen were well known – Margaret Fuller, Nelly Bly (Elizabeth Cochrane), Annie Laurie (Winifred Sweet or Winifred Black), Jennie June (Jane Cunningham Croly) – but most female journalists were not permitted to write on important topics. Front-page assignments, politics, finance and sports were not usually given to women. Top newsroom positions were for men only. Novels and short stories of Victorian America offered the prejudices of the day: Newspaper work, like most work outside the home, was for men only. Women were supposed to marry, have children and stay home. To become a journalist, women had to have a good excuse – perhaps a dead husband and starving children. Those who did write articles from home kept it to themselves. Few admitted they wrote for a living. Women who tried to have both marriage and a career flirted with disaster.2 The professional woman of the period was usually educated, single, and middle or upper class.

I took my own kids to the boy’s first birthday party. I got close. Then I had to write the boy’s obituary. He died at the age of 20 months. “You know, Jon. We knew it was coming, but it was so hard,” the mother told me the day her son died in her arms. “He was so innocent of everything he’d been through. The last word he said was ‘Elmo’.” I used that detail, a child’s last word, Elmo, in the lead paragraph of my obit to capture what that story was all about: Innocence.

  • What the Dead Know Discussion Questions by Laura Lippman ( )
    What the Dead Know Discussion Questions by Laura Lippman (http://www.litlovers.com/reading-guides/13-fiction/8337-what-the-dead-know-lippman?showall=1 ) What the Dead Know Laura Lippman, 2007 HarperCollins 400 pp. ISBN-13: 9780061128868 Summary Thirty years ago two sisters disappeared from a shopping mall. Their bodies were never found and those familiar with the case have always been tortured by these questions: How do you kidnap two girls? Who—or what—could have lured the two sisters away from a busy mall on a Saturday afternoon without leaving behind a single clue or witness? Now a clearly disoriented woman involved in a rush-hour hit-and-run claims to be the younger of the long- gone Bethany sisters. But her involuntary admission and subsequent attempt to stonewall investigators only deepens the mystery. Where has she been? Why has she waited so long to come forward? Could her abductor truly be a beloved Baltimore cop? There isn't a shred of evidence to support her story, and every lead she gives the police seems to be another dead end-a dying, incoherent man, a razed house, a missing grave, and a family that disintegrated long ago, torn apart not only by the crime but by the fissures the tragedy revealed in what appeared to be the perfect household. In a story that moves back and forth across the decades, there is only one person who dares to be skeptical of a woman who wants to claim the identity of one Bethany sister without revealing the fate of the other.

Starting in 2013, our May meeting has become a “Series Share” opportunity. No title/author is assigned this month. Members are encouraged to read the 1st or 2nd book in any “new” series that has recently started – all members are given a chance to describe the series they sampled, and whether or not they would recommend it to other readers. A List of the titles/series sampled is posted to the blog. 2006 “St. Alban’s Fire” by Archer Mayor “Dying for Chocolate” by Diane Mott Davidson “Champagne for One” by Rex Stout “Morality for Beautiful Girls” by Alexander McCall-Smith “Death at Victoria Dock” by Kerry Greenwood “Dating Dead Men” and “Dating is Murder” by Harley “A Study in Scarlet” by Arthur Conan Doyle Jane Kozak The works of Erle Stanley Gardner [Nov/Dec 2008 hiatus] “Catnap” by Carole Nelson Douglas 2009 “The Daughter of Time” by Josephine Tey “Partner in Crime” by J.A.
