She is an experienced lobbyist and has often spoken around the country on First Amendment free speech, church/state separation, abortion and reproductive rights. “Marilyn Fitterman led the women’s movement in New York during a tumultuous, yet thrilling era for women’s rights. Never one to mince words or sugarcoat the truth, her memoir is a gripping, funny, and reflective look at life as a leading Second Wave feminist. This book is instructive for social justice activists and all women today.” Sonia Ossorio – President NOW-NYS & President NOW- NYC “Here’s a personal behind-the-scenes rags-to-politics story of a courageous, effective, feminist activist. Fitterman spent decades on the front lines for abortion rights, birth control, and women’s autonomy. I’m excited about this book; it is a MUST READ.” Bill Baird – of US Supreme Court’s 1972 Baird v. Eisenstadt decision making birth control legal for singles in the US. “In 1989 Fitterman hired me as lobbyist. Throughout her NOW-NYS presidency she was a true visionary and brilliant strategist whom I remember whispering at a statewide meeting, “My God, they’re going after birth control.” She saw, before most, the oncoming onslaught against women’s reproductive freedom. She stands throughout time as a beacon and tireless fighter for girls’ and women’s personal dignity.” Lois Shapiro Canter, J. D. – President, Saratoga Foundation for Women WorldWide Inc. & President, Saratoga Unites, Inc. “I always knew I had a voice but never realized how strong it could be until I met Marilyn Fitterman.

Book excerpt: A deeply human-centered perspective on the origins of America's food Where Am I Eating? bridges the gap between global food producers and the American consumer, providing an insightful look at how our eating habits affect farmers and fishermen around the world. Follow the author on his global quest to meet the workers that nurture, harvest, and hunt our food, as he works alongside them—loading lobster diving boats in Nicaragua, harvesting bananas in Costa Rica, lugging cocoa beans in Ivory Coast with a modern-day slave, picking coffee beans in Colombia and hauling tomatoes in Indiana. This new edition includes a study guide, a deeper explanation of the "glocal" concept, and advice for students looking to become engaged as both local and global citizens.

Book excerpt: The sound and the fury… On a dark night in Pennsylvania, a jazz legend met his death. But now, in the heat and light of Las Vegas, the sound of Clifford Brown’s soaring trumpet is coming back to life. Because a man named Evan Horne, who knows all about jazz and pain, is unraveling a puzzle that reaches back forty years to Brown’s last hours—and that has already gotten one person killed. Horne was called to Las Vegas to authenticate some recordings purported to be the lost tapes of Clifford Brown. But when a murder interrupts his listening session, Horne becomes the key player in a dangerous duet. Carrying a worn old trumpet that may have belonged to Clifford Brown himself, Horne is pursuing the truth behind an audiotape that may be worth a fortune, may be a hoax, and may be just one haunting melody in a killer’s murderous obsession… Praise for THE SOUND OF THE TRUMPET: “Well written, plausible, and down to earth; recommended.” —Library Journal “Fascinating insider information on various aspects of the jazz world. A must for jazz fans, who will appreciate Moody’s grasp of the music.” —Booklist “When Bill Moody writes about dead jazz musicians, you can hear the blue notes bouncing off the walls.” —The New York Times Book Review “Moody writes beautifully…a gallery of colorful figures…distinctively pleasurable.” —Publishers Weekly “For a lively trip into the…world of jazz musicians, and murder, there’s no better guide than Bill Moody.” —Tony Hillerman, author of the Leaphorn and Chee mysteries
