Description
Grace Kelly, Coco Chanel, Audrey Hepburn, Indira Gandhi, and Madame Chiang Kai-shek were worshipped, loved and sometimes even feared by millions the world over. These pioneers showed that a woman could be the equal of a man but behind the public success, there was often private heartache and personal tragedy. This series, featuring archive interviews and dramatic re-enactments, reveals the price these women paid for their achievements and adversities they overcame to emerge as triumphant, inspirational icons of the 20th century. In this documentary, Dr. Ruth Westheimer discusses her experiences as a Holocaust survivor and a sniper in the 1948 Arab-Israeli War before immigrating to America to pursue education, psychology, and ultimately, become a nationally renowned sex therapist. Despite her celebrity status, she remained true to her Jewish roots.
