First off, who let Gloria Steinem become 86? The icon of the feminine movement who 48 years ago started Ms. magazine is now being portrayed in a screen flick this year. Caveat: It will take six actresses to portray her, well that makes sense.

All kid and aside, Gloria Steinem was born in Toledo, Ohio, graduated from Smith College, and worked as a NYC journalist prior to her Ms. Magazine life.

Here are a sampling of her accolades:

• Co-founder of New York Magazine and Ms. Magazine
• President of Ms. Foundation for Women
• Helped create Take Our Daughters To Work Day
• Board of Trustees Smith College
• Co-founder Women’s Media Center
• Emmy citation for excellent in television writing

and to…

• Julianne Moore
• Alicia Vikander
• Lulu Wilson
• Ryan Kiera Armstrong
• Rose Byrne
• Christine Lahti

YOU Go Gals – look forward to your exceptional portrayal of the greatest feminine icon our world has ever produced..

and remember

my favorite Gloria Steinem quote,

“A woman without a man is like a fish without a bicycle.“
