Finding My Voice: A Personal History of the Silent Generation is a far-ranging and captivating memoir by Janet Taliaferro-a woman who was never silent. Her engrossing personal story ranges from her first-hand recollections of WWII through the Korean Conflict, to Vietnam, Kennedy's assassination, the Civil Rights Movement, the Women's Movement, and beyond.

By virtue of her work in the political and public arena, Taliaferro found herself at remarkable crossroads and events time and again. At the same time, she recounts her personal life, both its triumphs and troubles as she navigates sobriety and motherhood. This memoir is an engaging, amusing, and fascinating account of a life well-lived.
