Grace Williams has been a reporter at The Wall Street Journal and Barron's, and freelanced at places like Forbes and the Today Show. She was also a contributor to WSJ's Speakeasy culture blog. We talk about how she worked her way up from an internship to an admin job at WSJ to finally writing for the august publication before going out on her own. Writer, editor, wife, and mother, Grace is an inspiration and her voice crackles with humor and intelligence.
Her first book, An Account of Her Own, about a group of women who fought back against sexist financial institutions and came together in 1978, just years after women earned the right to hold a line of credit without the signature of a man, to establish and operate the Women's Bank of Denver, is coming out with Little A, a publishing imprint of Amazon.
