The ingenious mind behind Ms. Magazine is coming our way to give a striking insight into the events and people that shaped her.

Gloria Steinem, the revolutionary American thinker, journalist and feminist, has been announced as the headline author for the 2016 Sydney Writers’ Festival. A striking mind who has travelled the world, helping to stoke the fires of social activism along the way, Steinem is a truly significant figure in modern feminist discourse.

It’s also Steinem’s first time in the country for almost 40 years, making this event a very special one indeed. Exciting stuff.
