True Tens: Seven Women of Beautiful Character

I've long thought that women were more interesting than men. Men always seemed so transparent, while women were, for the most part, unfathomable. As I grew older I realized that I was looking through the wrong lens. So instead of looking, I started seeing...and wonderful new stories grew before me. Vive la différence!

A veteran journalist, I put my perspective to work. I interviewed seven women who live here on the Central Coast of California. They have lived very different lives but all share this in common: They are women of beautiful character.
