Becoming Ginger Rogers is one woman’s inspiring journey to reclaim her life during the dispiriting days of New York City post-9/11, the unraveling of a successful business she co-founded, and the prolonged illness and death of her beloved husband.
This book is, in part, a memoir of a
Japanese-American woman born and raised in Hawaii who fulfilled her
dream of “making it” in Manhattan; it’s also a voyeuristic glimpse into
the world of competitive ballroom dancing; and a business book about the
lessons learned from ballroom dancing that made Patrice a better
partner and a smarter CEO. Her delightful memoir shows us how we can revitalize ourselves so that our most exciting, productive and joy-filled days are ahead of us.
