Stephanie Klein, Greek Tragedy

Description: With her signature acerbic wit and captivating insight, the author of the best-selling memoirs Straight Up And Dirty (which she developed for ABC as a half-hour comedy series) and Moose: A Memoir of Fat Camp (which she is currently adapting into a feature film with Hollywood producers), Stephanie Klein offers "Straight Up Advice" and blogs honestly about everything from rejection to "relationshits."

Often compared with Sex & The City, dubbed �The Carrie Bradshaw of New York bloggers,� by The New York Times, Klein, now married with boy girl twins, still manages to write about it all in a surprisingly raw and real way. Nothing is off limits, which is exactly how her readers like it. Marriage, friendships + "endships," writing tips, and humorous life observations are some of her best.

Gretchen, Girls Can't WHAT?

Description: Growing up in a neighborhood of all boys, Gretchen learned to throw a football and race BMX bikes. She played Little League baseball every summer and in the 6th grade was one of two girls to make the boys basketball team. During high school she was involved in a serious car accident and doctors questioned whether she would ever walk again. Two weeks after having her vertebrae fused back together she was walking unassisted. Continuing to break gender stereotypes, Gretchen�s first year of college was also a challenging experience as the only female percussion major in a field dominated by guys.

If anyone knows what it�s like to be told you can�t do something because you�re a girl, it�s her.

These childhood experiences prompted Gretchen to create the Girls Can�t WHAT? website in 2005. It is here she shares personal experiences along with amazing stories and interviews from some truly inspirational women. Together, their purpose is to encourage women to pursue their dreams no matter what roadblocks they may encounter.
