No Place For A Lady
My completely normal life. With a foreword by Peter Merseburger
„For the White House, Thea Rosenbaum was the very personification of German Television for decades. Her American colleagues called her an institution.”
Fritz Pleitgen
THIS IS A MAN’S WORLD – SO WHAT?
SHE HAS ALWAYS DONE THINGS HER OWN WAY: jumping off aeroplanes to be close to the action, walking through mine fields and experiencing military bombardments. Over and over she has heard: „This is no place for a lady!” But still she asserted herself as a successful journalist. Her path led her all the way to Washington, where she coordinated foreign correspondents as White House Pool Producer. Five presidents came and went, but Thea Rosenbaum remained. On her impressive path, she has repeatedly been faced with prejudice and doubt as to whether she could prevail in a man’s world and whether it is possible to reconcile having children and a career. With optimism, curiosity, and courage, she has achieved all of these aims – always intent on being the first and the best.
