Download To Be a Woman: The Life of Jill Craigie AudioBook Free
Jill Craigie - filmmaker, writer, pioneering feminist, and committed wife to former Labour head Michael Feet - led a fantastic life. Strikingly attractive, fiercely 3rd party, and politically radical, Craigie founded a reputation as a filmmaker with her 1944 film Out of Chaos, becoming the first girl director to get national attention. Talented and versatile, she had written several film scripts, numerous articles, radio performs, and successful columns, but she always battled as a female and a socialist in a male-dominated, traditional industry. Her 50-year marriage to Michael Feet, the love of her life, involved her in politics at the best level. The couple's common interest in literature and the arts made their Hampstead house a meeting place for artists, writers, stars, and politicians likewise. Carl Rollyson has created an intimate and honest portrait of this charismatic amount, who never ceased to press the restrictions of what it designed to be considered a 20th-century woman.
