Mead's major achievements were known to me, but I was unaware of the details of her life and professional career.

Small woman with a big staff. <br /><br />Funny I read a review in the NYTimes just yesterday about work of fiction involving an incident in New Guinea with her first and second husbands.<br /><br />Her daughter (Bateson) is also a writer, and you will see her doing yoga in the PBS 'special' Yoga for Everyone. Interesting people. <br /><br />Now you need to review Betty Friden's life.
