About the author

Esther "Eppie" Pauline Friedman Lederer and Ruth Crowley were the main writers behind the public image of Ann Landers because of their popular syndicated advice column, "Ann Landers." For about 45 years, the column was a regular feature in many newspapers across North America. People would write her letters to seek her advice concerning their personal problems, and she would publish her advice in her columns. Her writing style was direct, and often critical. She would often upbraid a letter-writer with the quip, "Watch it, bub!" Her stated opinions often seemed customized to appeal to her predominantly female readership.

Reviews

[Jennifer Morefield · Rating 4 out of 5]

As a child, occasionally my parents would read a great response from Ann Landers in the newspaper. If before I understood the advice she was giving, I had heard her name in a positive way. As I grew older, I enjoyed reading her column on occasion. When I saw this book among my mother's collection she left me, I was interested in reading it. Ann Landers was wise, kind, and cared about her readers and tried to give her best to the people who sought her out for advice. I enjoyed this look at a great woman who made an important mark in the world around her. A worthy read...
