Back in 2016 when Abby Wambach was promoting her book Forward, she was one of the featured speakers at the BEA Librarians’ Dinner. She brought the house down with her powerful, emotional presentation. A few days ago, she delivered another powerful speech when she delivered the 126th commencement address of Barnard College to the Class of 2018. "Like all little girls, I was taught to be grateful… But one day I realized, I couldn't Little Red Riding Hood my way through life. I realized, I wasn't Little Red Riding Hood. I was the wolf."
