Female Force: Elizabeth Warren – My Thoughts

Introduction: Female Force: Elizabeth Warren – My Thoughts

Over a year ago, I came across Female Force: Sheryl Sandberg, which was on a list of books to read. I added it to my to-buy pile and forgot about it. A couple of weeks ago, I started to wade through the list, and was reminded of the book, so I bought it. While on Amazon, I purchased a few of the books in the series, including Female Force: Elizabeth Warren.

I read and reviewed Female Force: Sheryl Sandberg, then decided to do the same for Elizabeth Warren, since I did not know much about her. And here it is.

Female Force is a comic book series that focuses on notable women. I found Female Force: Elizabeth Warren quite disappointing. On the internet, I noticed that people want to know about her:

• Who is her husband?
• What is net net worth?
• What is her education?

The book obviously answers some of these question. But if you're looking for a comprehensive biography, this is not the book. Keep in mind that this book is part of a comic book series. After I read the one about Sheryl Sandberg – although I had known quite a bit about the Facebook CEO – it covered a lot of the important information about her.

I do not like politics, but Warren has been in the news, so I thought I would quickly get the “Cliff Notes” version about her. After reading Female Force: Elizabeth Warren, I still do not have a good handle on who this politician is.

A highlight of Elizabeth Warren’s childhood is when she got to meet James Garner in 1957, when she was eight years old. In 1961, her dad lost his job because he couldn’t sell while he was hospitalized.

The family car was repossessed and her mom had to go back to work. She was a bright young girl and enjoyed debating. In 1967, Elizabeth Warren went to George Washington University. She left university to marry Jim Warren, her high school sweetheart.

In 1971, the couple relocated to New Jersey because of Jim’s job. When she had a daughter, she decided to stay home to care for her. Jim was very supportive of his wife, encouraging her to go to law school. In 1973, she enrolled in Rutgers University Law School. Life was hard for her, trying to balance school and family and she felt like quitting. She finally got the hang of things and was able to graduate in 1976.

Although her husband, Jim Warren encouraged her to go back to school, surprisingly, he left her, because he couldn’t deal with her newfound independence. She taught law at several universities over the years. In 1980, she married Bruce Mann, a law professor, but kept her first husband’s last name.

In 2011, Elizabeth Warren announced that she was running for the Massachusetts Senate. In 2012, she talks about her platform. Fast forward to 2019, she is a presidential hopeful.

Conclusion: Female Force: Elizabeth Warren

Some people may enjoy Female Force: Elizabeth Warren, but I wanted a bit more. Because Female Force is a comic book series, I have to recognize that there are only so many pages, therefore, the writers have to omit some information.
