Personal History, by Katharine GrahamRead about the other books on the list.
If it’s the peek into the personal life of a woman in power that attracted you to Lean In, then try this Pulitzer Prize–winning autobiography of the matriarch of the Washington Post Company. Graham didn’t claw her own way up the ladder, but she had to learn how to lead once circumstances put her at the top. Not a new title, but another classic.
Personal History is among Mark Whitaker's six favorite memoirs and Cathie Black's five best books for how to succeed in business.
