"For more than 40 years, Katie Couric has been an iconic presence in the media world. In her brutally honest, hilarious, and heartbreaking memoir, she reveals the behind-the-scenes of her tumultuous personal and professional life--a story she's never shared, until now. Couric was inspired by her journalist father to pursue the career he loved but couldn't afford to stay in. Balancing her vivacious personality with her intellectual curiosity, she faced a host of challenges--an eating disorder, sexism, the perils of celebrity--on her way to becoming one of the most prominent journalists of her time. But her greatest challenge was rebuilding her life with two young daughters after her husband, Jay Monahan, died of colon cancer at just 42. Following her 15 years as co-anchor of the TODAY show, Couric became the first female solo anchor of an evening newscast at CBS-a world rife with old-school misogyny. In the wake of the MeToo movement, Couric shares her clear-eyed reckoning with gender inequality and predatory behavior in the workplace. And she grapples with the downfall of Matt Lauer--a colleague she had trusted and respected after a wildly successful, decade-long professional partnership. Going There is the ... story of a thoroughly modern woman's journey from humble origins to superstardom."--,Provided by publisher.
