You Guys are Good - for Girls!

At a time when women musicians were just the front singers in groups, Donna dreamed of putting her own group together and being not only a singer, but an electric lead guitarist. This concept was groundbreaking in the 1960s, when women musicians typically played folk music on acoustic guitars, not rock, funk, or R&B on electric guitars. Excited by Donna's vision and energy, other women signed on to play drums, keyboards, bass, and rhythm guitar. They quickly learned about the double standard that existed for men and women. This did not deter them in any way, but made them stronger and more determined to achieve their musical goals. Donna would like to believe that her bands' courage, passion, and drive helped to open doors for future female musicians. This is a feel-good autobiography for anyone who's ever had a dream.

Dangerous Gifts

Deianeira sends her husband Herakles a poisoned robe. Eriphyle trades the life of her husband Amphiaraos for a golden necklace. Atreus’s wife Aerope gives away the token of his sovereignty, a lamb with a golden fleece, to his brother Thyestes, who has seduced her. Gifts and exchanges always involve a certain risk in any culture, but in the ancient Greek imagination, women and gifts appear to be a particularly deadly combination. This book explores the role of gender in exchange as represented in ancient Greek culture, including Homeric epic and tragedy, non-literary texts, and iconographic and historical evidence of various kinds.
