Hilary Clinton and Sheryl Sandberg of Facebook are just two of the women who were interviewed for MAKERS: Women Who Make America, a documentary of social history narrated by Mery Streep which will air on PBS on February 26th.

I graduated from high school in 1980 and remember all too well that there were not many choices for women prior to that time. You got married or you could be a secretary, teacher, or nurse. That was pretty much it. The amazing, courageous women who came before me that laid the groundwork for me to have the kind of life I do? Oh yeah, I’ll be tuning in.
