"Bloom shares expert insider advice on how to cut through the infuriating red tape of a health care system optimized for profit rather than cure. This is the kind of time-saving and lifesaving book that shouldn't be necessary in the first place, but given the shambolic state of access to decent medical care for all, it is imperative reading for women and their careers." --Gila Pfeffer, author of Nearly Departed
Founder Pamela Weiss is an Executive Producer of Thirsty, a film from writer/director Emily Abt.
Logline: Thirsty follows the upstart campaign of a gutsy public defender as she strives to unseat the incumbent mayor of Oakland and also keep her family intact.
The story is acutely relevant today because working mothers have disproportionately borne the brunt of the pandemic. In fact, 3.5 million mothers have left the workforce since the pandemic began. A stated goal of writer/director Emily Abt is to embolden women to strive for their professional actualization against the odds and expand our collective notion of what a leader looks like. As Abt says, more we see women and people of color in positions of political leadership, the more we normalize it.
