Summary

A former news reporter and news anchor, Mitchell was the first woman to host a nationally syndicated daily talk show, the first woman president of Turner Broadcasting, the first woman president of PBS and of CNN Productions. Today, as the curator of the global TEDWomen conference, she is a dangerous woman because of her lifelong insistence on redefining power on her terms, and in leveraging that power to manifest her vision of a better world. Here she offers mentoring to women who want to manifest their own personal or public uprisings. -- adapted from publisher info
