Book Signing at the Library

Harriet Newman Cohen signs a copy of her newly-published book for Maura May after a riveting talk on March 21 at the Norfolk Library along with her coauthor David Feinberg. Their book, “Passion and Power: A Life in Three Worlds,” traces her ground-breaking career as a leading divorce attorney, from entering a male-dominated legal world in the 1970s to continuing to champion women’s rights today. With candor and humor, she reflects on balancing family life, navigating the “divorce revolution,” and crossing paths with influential figures along the way. At 93, Cohen still practices matrimonial law in New York City.
