Personal History by Katharine Graham (New York, Vintage Books / Penguin Random House 1998).
Why you should read it: Life will throw a lot at you, things you can’t anticipate and much you don’t believe you are ever prepared for, and that’s where this memoir comes in. Katharine’s story will encourage you to take those critical steps before you think you’re even ready (or when you don’t believe you can check all 10 requirements on a job listing). Trust your moral compass, think beyond your imagined abilities and go for it.
