"The Redwing Blackbird's Song" is a book of hope and inspiration
for all those who aspire to lead. Dr. Susan Phillips Speece, has
written a warm, funny and at times heart warming account of growing
up in the Midwest, but with a passion for becoming a scientist. The
author's reflections on the little girl growing up in a sleepy
suburb of Chicago, venturing out on her own to explore her
environment, reveals the character of the woman she will become.
She shares the struggles of a young woman to balance family and
career and the abject fear one faces when one is stalked. Dr.
Phillips Speece is a down-to-earth woman who knows how to laugh.
She also breaks the stereotypic mold of scientist. Even the pointed
attempt of a college professor to have her leave his course did not
deter the author from reaching her goal.Inspired by her own mother
and her paternal grandmother, Dr. Phillips Speece realized the
importance of reaching out to others while still keeping her goals
in sight. "The Redwing Blackbird's Song" is enriched by Dr.
Phillips Speece's photography.
