I was honored to be interviewed for the documentary Fanny: The Right to Rock, currently airing on PBS; you can stream it here. Music luminaries, including Bonnie Raitt, Kate Pierson of The B-52's, and Def Leppard's Joe Elliott, sing the praises of the pioneering all-female band, who are also here to tell their great rock-n-roll story. I'm a fan; Fanny is Chapter 9 in my book Rock-and-Roll Woman.
