A fixture on national television and radio for more than 40 years, she also wrote five bestselling books focusing on the role of women in American history. She was portrayed on \u003cem\u003eSaturday Night Live\u003c\/em\u003e, name checked on the \u003cem\u003eWest Wing\u003c\/em\u003e, and featured on magazine covers. She joked with Jay Leno, balanced a pencil on her nose for David Letterman, and was the answer to numerous crossword puzzle clues. Many dogs, and at least one dairy cow, were named for her. When the legendary 1980s \u003cem\u003eSpy Magazine\u003c\/em\u003e ran a diagram documenting all her connections with the headline “Cokie Roberts – Moderately Well-Known Broadcast Journalist or Center of the Universe” they were only half-joking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCokie had many roles in her lifetime: Daughter. Wife. Mother. Journalist. Advocate. Historian. Reflecting on her life, those closest to her remember her impressive mind, impish wit, infectious laugh, and the tenacity that sent her career skyrocketing through glass ceilings at NPR and ABC. They marvel at how she often put others before herself and cared deeply about the world around her. When faced with daily decisions and dilemmas, many still ask themselves the question, ‘What Would Cokie Do?’\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn this loving tribute, Cokie’s husband of 53 years and bestselling co-author Steve Roberts reflects not only on her many accomplishments, but on how she lived each day with a devotion to helping others. For Steve, Cokie’s private life was as significant and inspirational as her public one. Her commitment to celebrating and supporting other women was evident in everything she did, and her generosity and passion drove her personal and professional endeavours. In \u003cem\u003eCokie\u003c\/em\u003e, he has a simple goal: “To tell stories. Some will make you cheer or laugh or cry. And some, I hope, will inspire you to be more \u003cem\u003elike\u003c\/em\u003e Cokie, to be a good person, to lead a good life.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Arotahi Agency","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46513793401068,"sku":"9780062851482","price":34.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9718923482210.jpg?v=1748871753"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.live\/collections\/steven-v-roberts.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
