Story
Eleanor Roosevelt, Fighter for Justice shows young listeners how the former First Lady evolved from a poor little rich girl to a protector and advocate for those without a voice. Although now seen as a cultural icon, she was a woman deeply insecure about her looks and her role in the world. But by recognizing her fears and constantly striving to overcome her prejudices, she used her proximity to presidents and her own power to aid in the fight for Civil Rights and other important causes. This biography gives listeners a fresh perspective on her extraordinary life.

Story
Роми Шнайдер. Икона французского кино, актриса феноменальной фотогеничности. Какой она была на самом деле? Была ли она счастлива? Или, напротив, несчастна — особенно после потери сына, погибшего в возрасте четырнадцати лет? Журналистка и писательница Сара Бриан проследила жизненный путь Роми — от детства в Берхтесгадене, Германия, до последних дней в парижской квартире. Она создала правдивый портрет кинозвезды, основываясь на свидетельствах людей, близко знавших Роми, — ее друзей, работавших с ней режиссеров, актеров и сценаристов.

Story
Much like her hit TV show, I Love Lucy, Americans in the 1950s fell in love with Lucy. Born in New York in 1911, Lucille Ball was always a natural performer. She danced in the chorus of Broadway shows and acted in small parts in Hollywood movies. But Ball's true gift was comedy. She found a way to showcase her gifts in 1951 when CBS gave her the chance to star in a sitcom.
