It tells the unforgettable true story of four women who came to California to try to make it in a world stacked against them.

She lives in the San Francisco Bay Area, and gravitates to underdog stories that combine big and improbable dreams with technological innovation. \nSee: www.julianguthriesf.com \n@JulianGuthrie\n@AlphaGirlsStories
