About this item

Esther Obert is a fighter pilot. Maria Fernandez is a special agent for the F.B.I. Kathy Mangum is an Imagineer with the Walt Disney Company. Rebecca Taylor is a fashion designer. Nancy Parker trains dolphins. Women's career option used to be limited, but not anymore. In COOL WOMEN, HOT JOBS, 19 women and three musical sisters (the Ahn Trio) tell about their work, how they got started, what they do, and why they love it. Each first-person story encourages readers to dream big about their own future, because anything is possible—from playing for the Women's National Basketball Association (like Betty Lennox) to being a choreographer (like Tina Landon). "Cool Facts" tell more about each job; "Hot Tips" get readers moving in the right direction.
