Product Information
A Female Pioneer during the 1950s to 2010s, Lucinda Jackson struggles to succeed in the male-dominated work world. She battles sexist torment in girlhood, in jobs on the farms and in the restaurants of America, in academia's science cliques, and in the halls and corner office of Fortune 500 companies-and, eventually, she overcomes shame and self-blame, learns to believe in herself, and becomes a champion for others. Eye-opening and up front, with insider tips, Just a Girl points the way to a brighter future for women everywhere. Book jacket.

Reviews
"Debut author Jackson recounts incidents of sexual harassment, revealing the generational wounds that the #MeToo movement seeks to heal. . . . An unflinching memoir that offers vital American history." -- Kirkus Reviews "As a Silicon Valley refugee myself, I deeply understand how challenging it is to be an ambitious woman in a male-dominated field (and world). Kudos to Jackson for capturing these challenges with spirit and hope. A must-read for all women who have ever bumped into the glass ceiling and broken through. Highly recommended!"--Stephanie Chandler, author and CEO of the Nonfiction Authors Association "This powerful memoir will help other women, in spite of anti-female adversity, overcome pain, self-blame, and shame. It will be especially beneficial to vulnerable young women as they try to make their way in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM)."--Beverly Engel, LMFT, best-selling author of I'm Saying No! Standing up Against Sexual Assault, Sexual Harassment, and Sexual Pressure "This is a critical book that all corporations should study in order to evolve their companies into a place where women want to work. Lucinda Jackson tells it like it is, and her takeaways and review of legal precedents are relevant to all women and men who work in corporations. Her chronology of the past seven decades teaches us how women are silenced by men and by their own pain, and how difficult it is to break through social and legal barriers to realize their professional and personal dreams. We have a long way to go, but Jackson tells us how we can get there."--Silvia Garrigo, Global Vice President, Millicom International "In the riveting Just a Girl: Growing up Female and Ambitious , Dr. Lucinda Jackson vividly describes how she surmounted harassment, discrimination, and dirty tricks on America's farms and at top corporations to become a respected scientist and corporate leader. But rather than focusing on victimhood, she forges powerful recommendations for how women can overcome sexism and pursue successful careers in science. Readers of this book will be inspired to redouble society's efforts to create a more fair and equitable culture for both women and men."--Cheryl Karpowicz, Senior Vice President, Ecology and Environment, Inc."Lucinda Jackson attains shero status as she chronicles her triumph over sexual harassment that is ever present as air. A corporate scientist and academic, Jackson compellingly weaves her personal story with society's awakening and progress toward addressing this scourge."--Andrea Jarrell, author of I'm the One Who Got Away: A Memoir " Just a Girl needed to be written. It reads like a memoir and keeps the reader captivated; however, it is for all professional women, especially those who have worked in corporate America and lived through the sexual harassment, double standard, and pain of having to mold themselves into a male version of themselves. This book doesn't leave you angry or feeling hopeless. Instead, it offers solutions for how women can learn to stand in their authentic selves, have a stronger voice, and raise boys to be more conscious and compassionate."--Kaya Singer, author of Wiser and Wilder: A Soulful Path for Visionary Women Entrepreneurs "Jackson's frank, to-the-point writing style, peppered with humor and expletives in just the right places is a total joy to imbibe--and [her] bravery in speaking the truth is astounding. . . . Sharing hope, she offers grounded, practical tools to actually move the needle." --Mary Brooks, founder of M2-One, "As a Silicon Valley refugee myself, I deeply understand how challenging it is to be an ambitious woman in a male-dominated field (and world).
