No Stopping Us Now is lively, fascinating, eye-opening look at women and aging in America, by New York Times columnist Gail Collins. Collins was the editorial page editor of The New York Times from 2001 to Jan. 1, 2007. She was the first woman editorial page editor at the Times. No Stopping Us Now “is a chronicle of the herky-jerky nature of older women’s journey to progress in the US over the years,” said Lesley Stahl in a review for the Times. “It’s eye-opening, brimming with new information and, as you’d expect from Collins, a lot of fun,” added Stahl. Stahl is a correspondent for 60 Minutes and the author of Becoming Grandma and Reporting Live. Collins “has delivered a deeply researched, entertaining book about the ragged journey of this increasingly visible segment of America’s population, bringing a reporter’s eye to the facts and anecdotes, and never without humor,” said Stahl. Collins was also a journalism instructor at Southern Connecticut State University. Collins’ excavation of the past has produced a vault of nuggets and gems, added Stahl.
