Una biografía intelectual no es la biografía de la vida privada. Es la historia de una formación en la que intervienen muchos factores, muchas presencias y escenarios: escuelas, experiencias, viajes y, sobre todo, lecturas. La vida intelectual sigue la trayectoria de las ideas en el tiempo, de ideas encarnadas en una persona y, fundamentalmente, en el diálogo que ha mantenido con figuras tutelares, maestros, colegas, amigos. Así se hilvana una biografía intelectual: conversando con abuelos, mentores, compañeros de tantas batallas, autores admirados.

This is a kind of history, or at least remembrances. It’s primarily personal but overall takes a look at the way things were many, many decades ago. Details may get a little out of whack from a chronological order now and then, but the gist of the way things in some desperate personal and national times will be fairly well put in place. It begins a trifle before the outset of the 1929 stock market crash that led to the Great Depression. Then, it points to the difficulties, financial and otherwise, that confronted individuals and the beleaguered nation overall.

When the mine shut down, she moved to the Bay Area, where she barged into the offices of the Oakland Tribune and was hired on the spot. She went on to become a nationally syndicated columnist and household name whose column ran for over thirty years and garnered fifty million readers.
