We were sad to learn of the recent passing of Gloria Steinem, a journalist and political activist who was a prominent voice for women's issues. ACT was fortunate to have her as our featured speaker at WE CAN, Women End the Course of AIDS Now, a champagne brunch in April 2007. She will be missed, but her legacy lives on!
