Summary

Bestselling author Marie Benedict has traveled the world for her research into women who have left behind crucial legacies, but their stories have largely been forgotten. Her latest book "Daughter of Egypt," a New York Times bestseller, uses two timelines and two points of view to reimagine the lives of two women: Lady Evelyn Herbert, who was crucial in discovery of King Tut's tomb, and Hatshepsut, who was a powerful female Pharoah of ancient Egypt. Benedict told Mary that these women, and all the women she brings to light in her books, share three qualities. Audiobook Credit: Macmillan Audio Learn more about your ad choices.
