About Christina Page: How the Pro-Choice Movement Saved America has been called “a major work on women’s rights” and a “stirring…provocative salvo in the abortion wars.” We will have copies of this book available for purchase at both events, price $12. Page is a prominent reproductive rights activist and consults for several national pro-choice groups, including the Adoption Access Network and the National Institute for Reproductive Health. The OnCommonGround forum is the only resource dedicated to covering news and perspectives on the search for common ground in the abortion conflict. Her pro-choice policy proposals have been adopted by Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Governor Ed Rendell, and the New York and New Jersey state legislatures.
Page’s previous book was The Smart Girl’s Guide to College. Her commentary has appeared in hundreds of newspapers nationwide, including The New York Times, the Chicago Sun Times, Newsday, and the Baltimore Sun. Page also regularly contributes to the Huffington Post.
