Holiday Stocking Stuffer: Book Explores Creative Power of Women
Dallas, TX (Vocus) December 2, 2010
‘Women Create! A seriously whimsical celebration of the creative feminine’ (Brown Books) by author Hilda Ruch, Ed.D., explores the lives of women past, present and imagined by weaving together interviews, quotes, historical vignettes, personal stories and fictional icons, creating a kaleidoscopic picture of women’s creative enterprises.
From First Lady Michelle Obama to Oprah Winfrey, Angelina Jolie to Nancy G. Brinker, Abigail Adams to Gloria Steinem, Scarlett O’Hara to Nancy Drew, Katharine Hepburn to Rosa Parks, Ruch says, when it comes to creativity, women are impresarios. They learn. They achieve. They lead and preside.
“Women Create! is an engaging, thought-provoking exploration of the power of women’s creativity…a book filled with stories that inspire confidence and action,” says Dr. Ann Stuart, chancellor and president of Texas Woman’s University. It is a straightforward, all-around great book that says, women can do it all.
Ruch identifies four characteristics of creative expression, providing a fresh perspective on women’s creative power and potential. She illustrates creativity as a universal and critical aspect of human nature; an animating source of energy enhanced by awareness and use, and as personal to the individual noting that gender difference affects creative expression.
“It reinforces the fact that creativity is at the heart of women’s ways of leading in their work, communities and lives,” says Candace O’Keefe Mathis, executive director of Leadership America.
