In her memoir Rebel Girl: My Life as a Feminist Punk, KATHLEEN HANNA, punk singer, writer, artist, and the frontwoman of the influential bands Bikini Kill and Le Tigre, takes us from her tumultuous childhood to her formative college years and her first shows. Being in a punk “girl band” was not an easy gig, or a safe one, as violence and antagonism threatened at every turn. Joining Hanna in conversation is author ADA CALHOUN.
