MAD WOMEN
by Jane Maas
April 10, 2012
MAD WOMEN:
The Other Side of Life on Madison Avenue in the 60s and beyond
A real-life Peggy Olson reveals what it was like to be an ad woman on Madison Avenue
in the 60s and 70s. The soon-to-be-released book Mad Women is a tell-all account of life
in the New York advertising world by Jane Maas, a copywriter who succeeded in the
primarily male jungle depicted in the hit show Mad Men.
Fans of the show are dying to know how accurate it is: was there really that much sex
at the office? Were there really three-martini lunches? Were women really second-class
citizens? Jane says the answer to all three questions is unequivocally “yes.”
In her talk, Jane also will discuss some of the tougher issues of the era, such as unequal
pay, rampant, jaw-dropping sexism, and the difficult choice many women faced between
motherhood and their careers.
