520    The Women Who Made New York reveals the untold stories of 
       the phenomenal women who made New York City the cultural 
       epicenter of the world. Many were revolutionaries and 
       activists, like Zora Neale Hurston and Audre Lorde. Others
       were icons and iconoclasts, like Fran Lebowitz and Grace 
       Jones. There were also women who led quieter private lives
       but were just as influential, such as Emily Warren 
       Roebling, who completed the construction of the Brooklyn 
       Bridge when her engineer husband became too ill to work. -
