'Framing a Life is Geraldine Ferraro's touching memoir of her Italian American family.  Like the frame on which her mother once crocheted beads to make a living, Framing a Life draws together a tapestry of immigrant family stories both past and present.  Beginning with the arrival of her grandmother maria Giuseppa Caputo on these shores in 1890, the author takes us on a grand journey that includes her own vice presidential nomination in 1984 and brings us to the present day, spanning a total of five generations.'
