This woman's memoir is one of my all-time-favorite books ever. I had the opportunity to meet her and hear her speak while she was on her book tour in 1997. She truly was an example of the evolution of women in the 20th Century.

I'm reading Katherine Graham's book now (November 2021) and I recommend it highly to anyone interested in newspaper history. Much of it covers the early years when her father Eugene Myers bought the paper, and through the years when her husband Phil was the publisher. I'm up to August 1963 and look forward to what's ahead.

10:59 - SPOILER ALERT: Deep Throat was then FBI Deputy Director Mark Felt. He was married. They had two kids. Katherine got the "man" part right.

Reminds me of Margaret Thatcher. I wish she would've chosen someone that is a more interesting and different character to play instead of just choosing any woman that is in power. I wanna see different characters, Miranda was also powerful but TOTALLY different character than Thatcher. This Graham thing... And then she did the Opera bad singer haha! I love that Meryl, the playful one has GREAT taste.

Hey folks. Movies are great n all but why not pick up a good book. Here's a suggestion. Author: Deborah Davis. Title: Katharine the great. An excellent piece that could not be discredited. Not even by Katharine's lawyer team. No-one! Also. Peter Janney has some excellent insight in his book of those times... Available on Amazon and other good bookshops.

Not long before Deep Throat was revealed, I remember watching an interview with Katharine and Ben Bradlee together and the question came up again. Ben reiterated that he knew who it was and she said she didn't and she didn't want to know, even after all those years. The whole scandal at the time and the Nixon administration was an obvious dark cloud over her professional career, perhaps it was a question that didn't seem to matter to her anymore.

+Mar Thivierge: Mrs. Graham requested that she NOT be portrayed in the movie; at that point, there was a distrust of Hollywood's treatment of journalism and (needless to say) no one knew how Redford's film would turn out. But before Mrs. Graham made her feelings known, Redford had talked to Geraldine Page about playing her, and she was interested in doing it. So Page became the most likely candidate for the part, although Lauren Bacall's name was also mentioned.
