Women On Ice
Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-415-91151-1 (ISBN)
The attack on Nancy Kerrigan at the 1994 U.S. Figure Skating Championships set the stage for a Winter Olympics spectacle: Tonya versus Nancy. Women on Ice collects the writings of a diverse group of feminists who address and question our national obsession with Tonya and Nancy and what this tells us about perceptions of women in twentieth century America.
Cynthia Baughman is Assistant Professor in the Department of Cinema and Photography at Ithaca College.
