Gloria Steinem Supported Book on Motherhood Wins Gold Medal

NEW YORK - June 2, 2014 - PRLog -- Momma Love, the book about modern motherhood that Gloria Steinem calls a gift to moms, has just been Awarded the Gold Medal by The International Book Awards.

Already the recipient of a Silver IPPY and named by The New York Times’ Blog as a Top Mother’s Day Gift Picks two years running; 2013 / 2014, the story of Momma Love is a true Tragedy to Triumph one. Once the victim of a criminal publisher who stole her life savings, Smith went on to self-publish Momma Love via a wildly successful Kickstarter crowd funding campaign. She has since received international acclaim and awards, and a “Momma Love Movement” has grown up around the book.

The Huffington Post writes “In the age of Instagram and ‘Fakebooking’, not all depictions of motherhood feel completely genuine. Ali Smith has provided 40 portraits that are as honest as they are beautiful.”

“This is an essential book not only for those considering parenthood, but anyone searching for the truth.”   – photographer Amy Arbus
