Rachel Simmons

There is a hidden culture of cruelty in the lives of young girls. The toxic combination of aggressive bullying, harassment, and other behaviors which were once a rite of passage for all youth now comes to light in The New York Times best-selling author Rachel Simmons important and timely books: Odd Girl Out: The Hidden Culture of Aggression in Girls, Odd Girl Speaks Out: Girls Write about Bullies, Cliques, Popularity and Jealousy, and her latest, The Curse of the Good Girl: Raising Authentic Girls with Courage and Confidence.

A Rhodes Scholar and Vassar graduate, Simmons is a pioneer in exploring the phenomenon of female aggression. Her illuminating body of work delves deeply into the lives of adolescent girls in a manner which is both objective and empathetic. What she finds is a disconcerting, and yet highly accurate, reflection of the issues affecting women in this new era of feminism. And, through her experience Simmons crosses gender boundaries by empowering both men and women in how to negotiate conflict and develop healthier relationships. Distributed by Tubemogul.
