寫的非常真摯 商業用語錶達值得我學習 個人成長經曆能藉鑒 而且很豁達
評分A Great Woman Who Was Everywoman. With all the pain and late blooming that implies, Katharine Graham helped bring us out of a very different past. Because we are all in transition to an equality no one has ever known, she'll be a touchstone for the future

評分邂逅:2013.3.5.Strand書店1美元清倉; 旅程:2013.3.10.-2013.3.22.; 地點:傢中; 老奶奶迴憶往事異常瑣碎,有時寡淡有時如同嘮嗑;但奇怪的是還是欲罷不能地成瞭三月前半段的第一本也是唯一一本書。吸引人之處,我覺得一是“名人嘮嗑”(所謂tabloid,名人三長兩短總歸聚集眾人目光orz...所以想想書中動不動就齣現的總統名字吧~),二是關於她老公自殺、五角大樓文件以及毫無疑問水門事件的迴憶;LBNL,就是格雷厄姆奶奶接手WP之後,從多疑、無自信、自信心易受挫的廢墟中閃現齣來的對人對事的老到、豁達的正能量。

Katharine Graham was the legendary publisher of The Washington Post. She died in July 2001.
Winner of the 1998 Pulitzer Prize for Biography
An extraordinarily frank, honest, and generous book by one of America's most famous and admired women, Personal History is, as its title suggests, a book composed of both personal memoir and history.
It is the story of Graham's parents: the multimillionaire father who left private business and government service to buy and restore the down-and-out Washington Post , and the formidable, self-absorbed mother who was more interested in her political and charity work, and her passionate friendships with men like Thomas Mann and Adlai Stevenson, than in her children.
It is the story of how The Washington Post struggled to succeed -- a fascinating and instructive business history as told from the inside (the paper has been run by Graham herself, her father, her husband, and now her son).
It is the story of Phil Graham -- Kay's brilliant, charismatic husband (he clerked for two Supreme Court justices) -- whose plunge into manic-depression, betrayal, and eventual suicide is movingly and charitably recounted.
Best of all, it is the story of Kay Graham herself. She was brought up in a family of great wealth, yet she learned and understood nothing about money. She is half-Jewish, yet -- incredibly -- remained unaware of it for many years.She describes herself as having been naive and awkward, yet intelligent and energetic. She married a man she worshipped, and he fascinated and educated her, and then, in his illness, turned from her and abused her. This destruction of her confidence and happiness is a drama in itself, followed by the even more intense drama of her new life as the head of a great newspaper and a great company, a famous (and even feared) woman in her own right. Hers is a life that came into its own with a vengeance -- a success story on every level.
Graham's book is populated with a cast of fascinating characters, from fifty years of presidents (and their wives), to Steichen, Brancusi, Felix Frankfurter, Warren Buffett (her great advisor and protector), Robert McNamara, George Schultz (her regular tennis partner), and, of course, the great names from the Post : Woodward, Bernstein, and Graham's editorpartner, Ben Bradlee. She writes of them, and of the most dramatic moments of her stewardship of the Post (including the Pentagon Papers, Watergate, and the pressmen's strike), with acuity, humor, and good judgment. Her book is about learning by doing, about growing and growing up, about Washington, and about a woman liberated by both circumstance and her own great strengths.
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、...
評分因为巴菲特的经典投资案例,我对《华盛顿邮报》及其背后的发行人充满了好奇。最近断断续续花了一个月的时间才读完了这本自传——《Personal History 我的一生略小于美国现代史》。 按照时间线来看,本书第一阶段的主角是凯瑟琳及其父母;第二阶段的主角是凯瑟琳及丈夫菲尔,第...
評分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,...
