Rachel Cooke discusses her book Her Brilliant Career: Ten Extraordinary Women of the Fifties.
Cooke tells the stories of an architect, pilot, barrister, cookery writer and an archaeologist, amongst many other pioneering professional women. Her aim in writing the book was to demonstrate there was more to that period than “just aprons and lipsticked smiles”.
