By Accident: A Memoir of Letting Go
 

Joanne Greene's life story unfolds against the backdrop of a transformative era for women in America. Growing up in Boston during the liberating 1960s and '70s, she seized opportunities in San Francisco's media scene, excelling in radio and television. Her career in producing feminist and socially relevant content spanned decades, all while striving for a fulfilling marriage and parenthood. However, beneath her outward success lay a struggle with a relentless desire for control. A pivotal accident shattered her sense of mastery, leading Joanne on a profound journey of self-discovery. She learned that true strength emerges not from control, but from vulnerability and acceptance of fragility. "By Accident" is her testament to realizing that relinquishing the illusion of control can unveil inner resilience and guide us to more solid ground.
