Katharine Graham was the legendary publisher of The Washington Post. She died in July 2001.
Katharine Graham's father was a multi-millionaire who left private business and government service to buy and restore the down-and-out Washington Post. Her husband Phil Graham was a brilliant and charismatic man whose plunge into manic depression and eventual suicide is recounted movingly and charitably in this book. Above all, Katharine Graham tells her own story - the contradictions of her privileged yet lonely childhood; the tragic drama of her marriage - and the challenges of her new life as the head of a great newspaper company. An extraordinarily frank, honest and generous book by one of America's most famous and admired women, owner of one of its greatest newspapers, the Washington Post. This is more than the mere life story of a successful woman. It deals with power and politics at the centre, and the relationship between the White House and the press, notably over Watergate.

评分角度一:从一个女人的发展来说,菲尔・格雷厄姆的逝世想必是凯瑟琳・格雷厄姆人生中最重要的转折点之一。对于这本自传《个人历史》来说,菲尔的死也是一条分水岭,把凯瑟琳的人生故事硬生生割裂成了两个截然不同的部分。前半部分,用最通俗的语言来说凯瑟琳是个富二代的女...
评分凯瑟琳·格雷厄姆,她为人熟知的身份是华盛顿邮报公司前发行人、董事会主席,她被称为“美国新闻界最有权势的女人”。头顶这样的光环,她却不是想当然的那种“铁腕女强人”的形象。恰恰相反,从她的自传《我的一生略小于美国现代史》中,我所感受到的是一位平和、低调、内敛、...
评分 评分Katherine Graham陆续这个名字出现在了我喜欢的三本书中,是两位金融大鳄Warren Buffett和Peter Peterson的密友,只是这一点便让我好奇地找来这本书看。 在阅读过程中,我不停地因为格雷厄姆夫人的诚实而客观的描述而感到惊讶,她坦诚地写出童年缺乏母亲关爱导致的不安全感,...
只读了前半段,不是很精彩弃了。。

评分看了年轻部分的她,结婚以后的部分实在不知道再讲什么。
评分Today is 15th April 2020. I bought the book 6 years ago and just finished reading it. I brought it with me to UK 2018 and to US 2020. It was the book taking me six years to read though half of it was finished in the past two months the stay-in home policy of defeating COVID-19.
