Seanna McCaffrey is the president and CEO of McCaffrey & Associates, a
small but very successful business founded by her grandfather, after whom she
was named, and from whom she inherited her business sense. When he took it
over for a while, her father did not run it very well, and she has brought it
from the brink of disaster to its present thriving condition.
She is tall, about 5′ 8″, slender and light boned, so that her 127 pounds
are not skinny. She wears her carrot-colored hair fairly short, and dresses
for business in very tailored grey pants-suits, with just a touch of color in
her accessories. Although she appears to be in her early twenties, she will
celebrate her thirtieth birthday this coming November. (more…)

For five years, from April of 1979 until this last April, I worked part- time
at this funky non-commercial radio station in New York. Non-commercial, by the
way, means you do it for love and not for money. I was part of the public
affairs department and I produced programs on nuclear weapons, South Africa,
utilities, alternate energy, housing, all sorts of things.
During the time I worked at this station I occasionally supervised two
interns, Caroline and Eve, who worked on a couple of programs, turned out to
be very nice folks, but who did not realize that producing a regular radio
program takes a shitload of work. Eight to ten hours sometimes for one hour of
finished product, and that does not count travelling to and from wherever the
person you’re interviewing is located. So after some much needed help,
Caroline and Eve sort of faded off into other things. I once met Caroline
briefly in Penn Station and said hello, but I never saw Eve again until
yesterday. (more…)

My name’s Monique Yates, and I teach programming at a local computer
store. What follows is a little personal story about me. It’s very
private, and definitely X-rated! If that bothers you, don’t go any
further. Erase this file and forget you ever saw it, and no harm is
done.

Some how, women in the computer field have acquired the reputation
of being terribly straight laced and boring. I’ve never understood
why, and I’ve always thought it was my duty to dispel that myth, at
least to the best of my abilities. (more…)
