Impassioned civil rights activist, champion of women's rights,
hard-driving legislator -- U.S. Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton
is known in Washington as the "Warrior on the Hill." "Fire in My
Soul" is the story of Norton's extraordinary political career, told
from a personal perspective.
Author Joan Steinau Lester met Norton in 1958 while they were
both students at Antioch College. "Fire in My Soul" charts their
longstanding friendship and tells of Norton's rise to leadership --
from her early on-campus activism to demanding a Senate hearing for
Anita Hill to standing before the Supreme Court to uphold first
amendment rights. Filled with scores of Lester's conversations and
correspondence with Norton, interviews with Norton's colleagues and
confidantes, and dozens of original photographs, "Fire in My Soul"
is a compelling biography of one of the greatest political pioneers
in American history.
