In this heartfelt tribute to the most inspiring women in her life, Teresa Renda Carlson reveals how one life can be powerfully shaped by the collective influence of others. With the threads of support and positive examples set by the ladies profiled in these pages, Teresa has weaved a life of survival, generosity, beauty, and inspiration to so many others in turn. And through her gratitude for the gifts that each woman has shared with her, Teresa gives us a gift in return. The Many Faces of Women serves as a profound reminder of our interconnectedness, and its power to lift and sustain us no matter what hardships life may inevitably deliver.  Author’s proceeds from sales of this book go to food pantries in Boston and Detroit.
