Jessica Valenti
"JESSICA VALENTI is the author of three previous books, including THE PURITY MYTH: HOW AMERICA'S OBSESSION WITH VIRGINITY IS HURTING YOUNG WOMEN. She is also the founder of Feministing.com, which the COLUMBIA JOURNALISM REVIEW called "head and shoulders above almost any writing on women's issues in mainstream media." Jessica – called one of the top 100 inspiring women in the world by the GUARDIAN – speaks at universities and organizations in the U.S. and abroad about feminism, activism, and media. She lives with her family in Boston, but remains a New Yorker at heart."
