About this listen

Author Lola Reid Allin discusses her new memoir, Highway to the Sky: An Aviator’s Journey. Lola wanted to write a book that was not just about aviation but also about her experience as a female pilot at a time when it was extremely rare for women to be commercial pilots. While the industry has changed since Lola started out as a pilot, women still make up a very small percentage of the world’s commercial pilots, and many of the problems she faced in her career are still ongoing. Her book details Lola’s career in aviation, but it also addresses issues of motherhood, divorce, single parenthood, and non-traditional careers. Lola’s purpose in writing this memoir was to say to other women, “You are not alone.”
