A Girl’s Life Premiering Tonight on Public Television

“A Girl’s Life on PBS is a Wednesday TV pick… Author Rachel Simmons interviews parents, teachers, and social workers helping young women face the challenges of adolescence in the 21st century.”
– The Seattle Times

The American girl is becoming more and more powerful –– and she knows it. She competes on the athletic field and regularly outperforms boys in the classroom. But this picture of empowerment can also be deceiving. In A Girl’s Life, author Rachel Simmons brings together the latest research on the psychological, physical, and emotional development of girls, to help parents, educators and all concerned better understand the obstacles girls face during their adolescent years.

A Girl’s Life premieres tonight, December 30 at 8:00 PM on public television (check local listings).
