In the 1960s, Gloria Steinem and Barbara Nessim were roommates. These two independent, creative women—one from East Toledo and one from the Bronx—forged a friendship that has lasted over 50 years. Join them for an intimate conversation about their lives, their work, and life in New York City from the 1960s to today.
Gloria Steinem is a writer, lecturer, editor and feminist activist.
Barbara Nessim is an artist, illustrator, and educator who lives and works in New York City.
