#Networked: Women Lawyers Build Connections in COVID-19

Please join the Women in Law Section on Thursday, May 13 from 6:00 to 7:00pm ET for a virtual book club meeting to discuss #Networked, a timely and inspiring book that has garnered a ton of attention and for which we received many requests to feature in our book club! #Networked is an anthology written by twenty women lawyers who overcame the confines of COVID-19 social distancing to create connections, cultivate community, and build businesses in the midst of a global pandemic. Each of their stories is a fascinating read filled with vulnerability, resiliency, determination, and perseverance.

We are thrilled that authors Shari Belitz, Laura Gregory, and Winter Wheeler will attend the meeting to discuss their own stories and the creation of the anthology, and to answer questions from the attendees. #Networked is available for sale on Kindle and in paperback via this link on Amazon.
