About this ebook
They cracked the glass ceiling and changed the face of finance.
The untold story of the women who took on Wall Street.
Long before gender diversity became a corporate buzzword, a generation of women quietly infiltrated one of the world's most exclusive - and male-dominated - clubs: Wall Street.
From the typing pools of the 1960s to the trading floors of the 1980s, these women navigated a brash, bawdy world that was built to exclude them. Along the way, they challenged entrenched sexism and racism, reshaping the financial industry from the inside out.
She Wolves is a vivid portrait of the women who dared to dream big, who re-wrote the rules and shook the foundations of power.
From the award-winning author of The Barbizon
'Vivid . . . Riveting' LIZA MUNDY, author of Code Girls
'Fascinating . . . Gorgeous' AMY ODELL, author of Anna
Praise for The Barbizon
