She shares her experiences entering New York University at fifteen and just five years later becoming the world&’s youngest person to earn a PhD. She recounts her time in Cologne, Germany, studying during Hitler&’s rise to power, and her adventures in Europe and the Arctic as a reporter for the New York Herald Tribune. Spirited and compelling, Ahead of Time is a striking account of the early years of a woman at the center of the twentieth century&’s turning points.
