He brings us extraordinary family creation tales—his own included—that illuminate this changing world of contemporary kinship. Combining personal memoir and ethnographic storytelling, Modern Families tells a variety of unconventional family-creation tales—adoption and assisted reproduction, gay and straight parents, coupled and single, and multi-parent families—set against the social, legal, and economic contexts in which they were made. Yet each of these families, however they came to be, shares the same universal joys that all families share.
MODERN FAMILIES aims to shatter the secrecy and shame that often surrounds today's unconventional families. "Stories help make things make sense," Gamson stresses, encouraging parents to embrace new bedtime stories for the children they've conceived—through love, determination, and ingenuity, if not traditional reproductive biology.

As part of his career devoted to the mentally disabled, Dr. Robert Okin decided to use a powerful artistic medium to advocate for these people. In "SILENT VOICES", Dr. Okin invites all of us to get to know the people society treats like pariahs, people who, beneath their symptoms and rags, struggle with feelings and needs similar to those of the rest of us. He shares the striking and evocative photographs and stories—most often, in their own words—of more than 40 mentally ill people he met on the streets of San Francisco. "I wrote this book," Dr. Okin reflects, "to contribute to making these people known as human beings." View Guest page

Sharrie Williams
Join Patricia as she interviews Sharrie Williams, author ofThe Maybelline Story: And the Spirited Family Dynasty Behind It.

Growing up in their homes, and steward of the vast Maybelline archives, Williams tells the story of the birth of the Maybelline empire and about the fascinating family dynasty behind it. Williams tells an engrossing and captivating saga that spans four generations and reveals the humanity, the glamour, and the seedy underside of a family intoxicated by the quest for power, wealth, and physical perfection. It is a fascinating and inspiring tale of ambition, luck, greed, secrecy-and surprisingly, above all, love and forgiveness, a tale both epic and intimate, alive with the clash, the hustle, the music, and dance of American enterprise.
