  • Published only in the Second Edition, this is the story of Nancy F., who got sober in New York City in 1945 when she was 39 years old. It is said that Nancy and another young woman, perhaps AA pioneer Marty Mann, were often asked to go to hospitals and drying-out places frequented by the wealthy, because they were younger and "presentable." According to reports at the time, they carried the AA message wearing little black dresses, pearls, and hats with flowers on them. For 15 years, Nancy was also a regular attendee at one of the first "women only" meetings, started by Marty Mann in Midtown Manhatten. Nancy personified what people can accomplish by staying sober. She went to high school in her fifties and graduated cum laude from college in her late seventies. Her search for spirituality lead her to becoming a Quaker and doing missionary work teaching English to migrant workers. Nancy spoke at the 2000 A.A. International Convention in Minneapolis. She died in April 2005 with 57 years of sobriety. Howard L, sober since January 1, 1988, presents this inspired reading of the Big Book and encourages listeners to revisit earlier podcast episodes that feature the main chapters and stories in the First and Second Editions of the Big Book.
