"Best-selling author and international journalist Nancy Friday published her first book in 1973. It was entitled My Secret Garden and it caused explosive comment worldwide. The book, which compiled interviews of women discussing (in finite and graphic detail) their sexual fantasies became an immediate bestseller and target of the world's media. Newspapers discussed the book's publication on their front pages. Network news broadcasts 'led' with their outraged tracking of the book's colossal sales. Talk show hosts went to war to 'get' Ms. Friday as a guest. And the many publishers that initially turned down the opportunity of publishing the book wept in silence as they watched the ensuing storm of attention blow away any focus on anyone else's literary offerings for months and months." Born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Friday grew up in Charleston, South Carolina and was educated at Wellesley College in Massachusetts. She worked briefly as a reporter for the San Juan Island Times and subsequently established herself as a magazine journalist in New York, England, Italy and France before turning to writing full time and publishing her first book, My Secret Garden, in 1973. Subsequent books followed on themes ranging from mothers and daughters sexual fantasies, relationships, jealousy, envy, feminism and beauty. Through the 80's and the early 90's she was a frequent guest on television and radio programs such as "Politically Incorrect," "Oprah," "Larry King Live," "Good Morning America" and NPR's "Talk of the Nation." Despite the judgment of Ms. magazine ("This woman is not a feminist") she has predicated her career on the belief that feminism and appreciation of men are not mutually exclusive concepts.
