NAN MOONEY
Thursday, May 29 at 7:30 p.m.

Seattle journalist Nan Mooney, whose award-winning books have covered the ground from workplace (I Can't Believe She Did That: Why Women Betray Other Women at Work) and to racetrack (My Racing Heart), is here for the publication of her newest book, (Not) Keeping Up With Our Parents: The Decline of the Professional Middle Class (Beacon). "If you're wondering why, in our age of plenty, the financial treadmill keeps moving faster and faster for America's increasingly educated—and increasingly insecure—middle class, you owe it to yourself to read this book. It's all here: the big trends, the compelling portraits, the ideas for personal and political change, and the call to arms we so desperately need." - Jacob S. Hacker. "What happens when the center cannot hold? With great empathy and infectious alarm, Nan Mooney charts the travails of America's middle class in this important book." - Anya Kamenetz.
