Cathie’s one of my favorite people, and this is one book that’s long overdue. If you want to learn from the best or have a daughter, niece or friend who should, Basic Black is for you. Cathie Black is President of Hearst Magazines. Presiding over Bazaar, Cosmo, Marie Claire, “O”, Esquire, Town & Country, 19 magazines in all, she is one of the exceptionally high-powered women in business who truly did-it-on-her-own. With common sense and uncommon humor, Cathie tells you how.
