Curious about her early life and decisions, they wanted to share experiences that led to the woman she became. She was their role model because the choices she had to make were parallel to theirs. Even women's liberation of her times, two decades past, was still a struggle in theirs. Her granddaughters shared intimate feelings, aspirations and frustrations. The bond created was trusting and firm.Esther, a woman of her times - changing times of mores affecting career choices, marriage, family, careers and most significantly, how to successfully juggle these aspects of a contemporary woman's life.
