In 2011 Mika Brzezinski released her powerful New York Times bestselling manifesto, Knowing Your Value: Women, Money and Getting What You're Worth—a must read for women everywhere.

Brzezinski, the daughter of former National Security Adviser Zbigniew Brzezinski and an alumna of Williams College, has long been a champion of equality for women in the...
